Shifting my focus - groupwork in Second Life and the idea of Self

I’ve only been able to tip into the wealth that is the interviews I have so far (more to come next week), the questionnaires and the learning logs that are part of the assignment, but I have to ay, this is truly fascinating.

Groupwork in Second Life - of the kind that the module expected - has some unexpected facets that need to be explored further.

Lecturer pal and I are going to do a talk tomorrow: “How do I make my rubber duck spin? Supporting learning and creativity in Second Life” (while i was crazy enough to do a second talk, on the future generation of learners) and we’ll only be scratching at the surface, but … watch this space.

In the meantime, join me in the meditation-ferris-wheel of one of the students.
