second life
I took a course that utilized second life and hated it. One night while working on my assignment, my 25 year old daughter came in and asked what I was doing. She sat down beside me and loved it. She was so excited about playing with it. She said this is awesome. The whole time, I was thinking "this is stupid". I have talked to several people who have either utilized second life in the classroom, or been a student in a class that used it. It is definately a generational thing. Depending on the age of the person I asked as to what their response would be. It is definitely a way of connecting with the younger generation that grew up with xbox and other computerized gaming systems. What has your perseption of utilizing second life in the classroom been?
