My mom attended a lecture with me the other day in SL. Her av has been rezzed longer, but she’s hardly done anything since. We were able to get her dressed and looking more professional. I’m hoping to get her to do some presentations in SL at ISTE Island soon. Here’s a photo I snapped during the presentation.
Mother and Daughter sharing a moment in a virtual world.
I presented at the Northwest eLearning Conference (NWeLC) in Nampa, Idaho last week. I was presenting to a room of about five, and probably 10 in SL at Cypris Village. The slides are available here. It turned out really well. There were good responses and questions from those attending in RL. In SL, several learners showed up and shared some of their experiences and feelings about learning English in a virtual world.
I’ll be doing another presentation (guest speaking) in a CALL for ELL (computer assisted language learning for English language learners). That’s a mouthful! This will be on Thursday. I’ll probably use the same slide show, but take out one or two. And Professor should be able to make it as well!
I think I’ve decided on a day and time to do regular lessons. It will be Thursdays at noon-2pm SL time. I got my schedule for classes for this fall, and it looks like most things will be due on Tuesdays. Thursday will be a good day to do lessons in sl.
