In the CITT Tools & Techniques Toolbox: Second Life
Second Life is an online, 3D virtual world in which participants interact with each other and the software-created environment. Increasingly, educators are using Second Life to provide a richer and more interactive environment for teaching. Second Life is a rich resource for simulation and role-playing activities, as well as fostering collaboration amongst students. It’s also highly customizable, making creation of educational activities and environments relatively easy.
Would you like to learn more about Second Life and how it is being used here at the University of Florida? Check out the CITT Training schedule for two Second Life workshops being offered in January!
