 Second Life is a 3-D virtual world entirely created by its Residents.  Since opening to the public in 2003, it has grown explosively and today is inhabited by millions of residents from around the globe.

 Social Interaction & Networking  Businesses (Both in SL and real life)  Government – NASA, NOAA  Entrepreneurial endeavors  Creative Arts (live music, etc.)  Education – List of schoolsList of schools  Prototyping  Role-playing  Buy & Sell objects like real life

 Active Learning: ◦ An ideal platform for engaging students in creating their own learning activities, experiences and environments, and not just be passive consumers of learning.  3D virtual worlds can provide: ◦ Opportunities for rich sensory immersive experiences. ◦ Authentic contexts and activities for experiential learning, simulation and role-play.

 English students at the University of Texas- Austin each picked a role model, created an avatar and assumed the role of the avatar for the activity. Among avatars: Malcolm X, Oprah, Mother Teresa, Bill Gates and Teddy Roosevelt. The students conducted conversations in the personae of their avatars.

 The 3D virtual world "Second Life" is full of places to practice a foreign language - you can speak with real people all over the world. On the Avatar Languages web.

 Social Gatherings  Parties  Dance Clubs

 SL Users have the best seats in the house to these concerts

 Emergency Preparedness Emergency Preparedness  Companies are combining the use of Second Life and the (Nintendo) WiiMote to train employees on things such as: ◦ Inspecting a house for moisture and heat sources ◦ Mixing chemicals and loading them onto a truck ◦ Power Plant training ◦ Driving simulations  Using products like Google Maps and Google Earth, simulation can represent actual streets on-screen, so that not every trainee in America has to drive down the "same mythical Maple Street”.  Training modules include those intersections and locations where there is a history of accidents.

 SL provides online facilities for entire conferences to take place via the web  Conferences sometimes held on SL and simultaneously in a live facility

 Foundation Grant  Class Meeting Rooms  Training  Demonstration
