Agenda

The Second Life: SL is a virtual world created and launched by the Linden Lab on June 23, 2003 (Educause, June 11, 2008). Users of the SL, the SL residents, use the virtual environment to meet, interact, socialize, and perform many activities (Knittle, May, 2008). In the SL world, residents represent them self with their avatars (Educase, June 11, 2008). With control on the computer, avatars impersonate real-life living organism activities, such as walking, running, flying, talking, etc (Varvello, Picconi, Diot, & Biersack, 2008).  SL users joined the site with various purposes (Knittle, May, 2008). The purposes are ranging from social activities to academic activities (Educause, June 11, 2008; Knittle, May, 2008).  As consequences, SL islands has been used for having virtual parties, chattering, classroom activities, conferences, virtual office meetings, graduation ceremony, and many more (Varvello, Picconi, Diot, & Biersack, 2008). I had numbers of online training sessions, classes, and conferences happened through the SL.
