We’re having a Second Life party and Oscars ceremony for Judy’s Multimedia students on Monday 10th March (11.15am – 12.15 (4th years) then 12.15 – 1.15pm (MSc students)). While visitors come to the island in SL, the students and face to face visitors will be hearing presentations from the students and prizes for the best work will be awarded in Real Life.
Come to the island during the above time slots (UK time) to see what the students have been working on and visit each group’s area. Students will be logged on to show you around and give you party hats. 
Please note that the island is not open to visitors until 10th March to give the students a chance to finish off their works in progress.
Feel free to invite other SL educators or students who might like to come.
Looking forward to seeing as many at the assignment-party as possible!
