Time for a Second Life

Moodle Journal

Just recently I decided that the time had come to put my money where my enthusiasm was, so I upgraded my membership in Second Life and bought some land and see how it could be used in conjunction with my work on Moodle. While all this was happening I was watching through a colleague’s avatar at work (Whoops), keep that bit to yourself.

Decided to get Mooc'ed

The course: - Second Life MOOC ran from April 1 to 30 2014. The theme was connecting online for collaborative learning and teaching through Second Life. I was also pleased to see that Moodle was being used for asynchronous work with the synchronous side of things handled by WizIQ & Second Life.

I must confess actually that I have not always taken my own advice on this one, so plunging head first into Second Life was for me anyway a somewhat high risk investment back then.
