I post this for a few reasons:
- We get a sneak peek at Global Kids island on the Teen Grid in Second Life. (The Teen Grid is only accessible to players under 18 and to educators who have had a criminal background check.)
- One of the avatars in the video looks a *lot* like my avatar. Same hair. Same shirt. Very similar pants. Guess I’ve found my virtual twin!
Second Life Insider: A Machinima Peek at Global Kids Island
Howdy folks! I’m an Instructional Designer at UT Dallas. I have a Bachelor’s in Elementary Education from Angelo State University and a Master’s in Computer Education and Cognitive Systems from the University of North Texas. I’ve been working in edtech for 11 years. Hmm… what else? I’m a *huge* fan of that little Irish band called U2, and I’m a bigtime Firefly/Serenity advocate.
