Meegie, Brenda, and Adrian: Course of Study: Archeology Coordinates: ROMA Archaeology, ROMA Transtiberim (19, 59, 29) URL: http://slurl.com/secondlife/ROMA%20Transtiberim/19/59/29The The ROMA Transtiberim land in Second Life is an excellent location for a teaching Archaeology, Science, and History. This is a glimpse of what we experienced: [|SL Experience.doc]: Brian's SLURL is to a site called Wilder West (90.200.44). The site is an aviation museum where you can actually fly aircraft after reading about them. Well, flying them is the theory, I haven't figured out how to get them started yet. Here's a snapshot of me looking around.

Hi Group, this is Meegie, I found a great site to fly a helicopter. SLURL - http://slurl.com/secondlife/Immintel/223/54/1526 Check it out! I had a great flight! I used my other Avatar, MuMone Donogal. Here is is in flight.

He has on a parachute that you will receive prior to getting in the helicopter. The site is really easy to get around in, so I am not going into details on the ends and outs. Have fun! This site can be use to practice following simple commands, using the arrow keys and mouse look to control the helicopter.

Hey Class this is a site that I found for teachers!

Ed Tech Island 145.218.29 EDTECH island offers free resources and space for all teachers and faculty. Boise State University sponsor the site. You can learn how to build in SL, there is a scavenger hunt to practice moving in SL, you can add characters and role play with students, there is an arcade with games to practice math facts and other things, and a teachers Lounge that has lesson plans and other ideas. There is an amphitheater that you could have a lecture in and also a virtual world. I have not figured out much in the virtual world. I am sure there is a lot more than what I have found. [] Hope you enjoy it! Brenda White

Hi Class, =ECOLE SL =

This is my SL site! It is called Ecole SL, which is French for Second Life School. This SL site is perfect for intermediate French students to use. They can practice their reading, speaking, and listening skills while interacting with other Francophones. Specifically, students could be asked to practice new vocabulary in the site as well as reflect on their fluency progress as they use this site over time. To get the most out of this site, students will need speakers and a microphone. Please be sure to check it out! Click [|here] to visit the site.

This is my metaphor pic. I chose a light house because this is a learning tutorial site:[|Learning Pond] A lighthouse is a good metaphor for a learning site because it symbolizes light shining through the darkness of what is not known... I am not a great photographer but I wanted to include my stunningly good looking avatar in the pic as well. -Adrian Grubb



My picture metaphor below takes in several aspects of the scenery. It was such a great area to create a picture metaphor because of the significance in the learning tools this site entails. ~ Meegie
This SLURL contained many learning tools to bridge knowledge gaps. I came into the site overwhelmed and left with a ray of hope that I too can rez something in SL. This a great instructional vehicle that allows learners to move at their own pace. []
