Second Life in Education: Notes from Ball State

Second Life, an online 3D interactive world, is one of the hottest
subjects of the emerging Social Media and Web 2.0 online technologies
today.  While numerous companies and institutions (including Columbia
College Chicago) are creating new presences in this online environment,
what educational strategies can be developed for this new technology?
What are the experiences that educators have had so far in this new
environment?  Sara Robbins will speak on her experiences as one of Ball
State's SL researchers, and speculate on the future of education in the
emerging onlien world.

Sarah Robbins is a researcher in Rhetoric at Ball State University in
Muncie, Indiana.  Her research interests include online narrative,
education in Second Life, Social Networking/Media, and the Semiotics of
Tagging.  She speaks widely on the subject of Second Life, and consults
in the construction of meaningful virtual worlds.
