My Experience in Virtual Worlds A few years ago, when Second Life was first coming onto the scene as the next big thing, I sat in my office and scratched my head. I dabbled in SL a bit after that, chronicled my Second Life experiences on my blog, but I haven’t been “in world” in probably two years.

One common mistake organizations make in designing learning experiences in virtual worlds is failing to have specific learning objectives, either formal or informal, for the intended interactions. Virtual worlds, like other types of planned learning events require attention to instructional design to meet their desired goals.
