Welcome to all our new members from Australia

If you are teachers, you may want to join our teachers group.

Cheers

Gary

Last night's teachers meeting

A small group of us met up last night on the newly revamped Edunation III, we talked quite a lot about the differences between 2nd Life and Open Sim and the desire of educators to try to make language learning more active using MUVEs. The basic differences were thought to be the fact that on Second Life you belong to a community, more like in real life, whereas Open Sim is back to the closed world of the classroom.

Hi Gary,

It's great to be part of this group. We can feel rather isolated downunder but being a traveller in virtual worlds has no boundaries :-)

Now if we could do something about the time zones, then I could actually meet you all in SL. One day...

See you soon,

Belma

I am hoping to learn a lot from observing and if I can, helping out with the EVO sessions. I'm really looking forward to seeing some of the technical aspects and principles of on-line instruction put into practice. Just let me know if there is anything I can do.
