First, it looks as though Linden Labs, the developers behind Second Life, may be downsizing their corporate efforts ( Second Life Enterprise Edition ). The story seems to have broken in a number of places, Virtual Worlds News reports that Linden Lab Lays Off 30 Perfect Of Staff. Interesting development.

Immersive Learning includes the concepts of games, online Simulations and Virtual Learning Worlds. There is still going to be a steep learning curve for virtual worlds. A survey study by SRI indicated that 58% of the respondents has a strong interest in how virtual world technologies can be deployed in the workplace.

He ran Michael Milken’s Knowledge Universe Interactive Studio before he became VP, Platform & Technology for Second Life at Linden Labs. He told me about an iPad app he’s working on that will support study groups. Imagine you’re studying, say, Roman History. Most preferred the virtual meetings.
