Second Life and Education

Second Life is a Multi-User Virtual Environment (MUVE) which has created quite a stir in the physical world. The Second Life world is built by the residence and has its own striving economy! Here, one can find businesses (IBM; Toyota), malls (clothing, furniture, and animations), clubs (DJ and Live entertainment), meditation (with or without audio) and schools (recruitment, classes and offices). If it can be done in the physical world, it can be done in Second Life. At the time of this writing (Tuesday, July 1, 2008; 3:55 PM), the number of individuals “in world” at the same time is 57,900. Imagine all those avatars (the virtual person behind the physical person) gathering and exchanging ideas!
