The University of New Orleans will be offering classes this fall in Second Life. One of the newsletters I subscribe to alerted me to this and it will be interesting to follow - especially given that my pre-service teachers will be involved in Second Life this fall. I'm anxious to see if your campus computers will allow us to access Second Life. Worst case, I make it an optional requirement although most will be able to access it from home.
I'm anxious to post more of my reflective practice about what we had teachers doing over the last two weeks and what I plan to explore before the new academic year starts. Additionally, there are some sites to research for some publication opportunities - which rank high on the list in a few weeks. Still catching up on a few things.
I'm also looking forward to the new academic year bringing folks back to a regular virtual presence in SL. The last few times I've gone in, not many have been there and it's just not as interesting without people. It's almost another tool like IM but, yet, much more.
