Welcome to the LL3D project!

Are you a practitioner who works in the field of education and training? Have you heard the terms MUVEs, or Second Life? Do you work within the field of European Lifelong Learning? The LLL3D project is promoting opportunities for teachers, trainers, researchers to discover, learn about and utilise different “learning scenarios” for virtual worlds. Our learning scenario approach provides access to best practice case studies across formal, non formal and informal levels and different sectoral activities.

Interview with Karsten Lundqvist

Submitted by ebarone

Hello readers! We decided to use this space also to publish some interviews with experts on the use of Second Life as a pedagogical tool and to understand what has been their experience with the Virtual world. We selected a set of questions that we thought could have helped people undertand what are the obstacles as well as successes of such an innovative methodology for teaching without bounderies.

Is your SL avatar a projection of yourself?

Submitted by shirleyearley

I am currently reading Peter Bradwell's The Edgeless University, there is a lot of information in it and I'll write a review when I finish it. But today I was reading a sub-section entitled: Learning in an immaterial world, the opening sentence starts:
"Second Life, an immersive virtual world in which people control avatars (digital projections of themselves)..."

American Army

Submitted by karlund

Many years ago I first heard of American Army - the game. It intrigued me that the American Army would create a game for both recruitment and training purposes, giving it away for free.

Amazon holding a job fair in Second Life

Submitted by shirleyearley

"The very first Amazon Job Fair in Second Life will take place on Tuesday July 14th and will run from 6 AM to Midnight, PST." according to their blog. This looks as though it may be an interesting way of recruiting, but I guess would be candidates who are not familiar with Second Life need to have plenty of practice time to ensure they move smoothly and have the right interview appearance.

Managing Meetings in Second Life

Submitted by shirleyearley

In many ways setting up a meeting in Second Life is much the same as arranging one in real life, but there are some challenges that the organisers may not realise. It was a chance remark over Twitter that led to Pauline Randall and I writing "Managing Meetings in Second Life: The Protocol Guide", the guide is available at Scribd.
