Justifications+for+using+SL

=You want to use Second Life but your PT / DHT / HT / IT support won't allow it?=

This page is for justifying (educationally, using lots of the latest educational buzz words) why you should be allowed to use Second Life in class.

Second Life is a highly motivating environment. At the Kids Connect we found the young people taking control of their own learning, demanding to know how to build a particular shape or script an object in a particular way. We also found that the kids with access to Second Life at home were spending a lot of their own time working on their creations.

Second Life is flexible, very adaptable, and reasonably easy to use. Once users have gone through 'Induction Island' (an in-world tutorial) then they have the skills to explore, collaborate and create in Second Life.

Second Life is perfect for Curriculum for Excellence and Determined to Succeed. //More justification of this later...!// More information about using SL in Enterprise education is available here.
