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.

What I like about Lesley's presentations about Cybergogy are that they are informative from the perspective of thinking about teaching in a 3D environment but that they also incorporate aspects not possible in the 2D world. Columns and information appearing in 3D before the audience members. I took some screen captures of the event.
