    This is a great interactive science museum featuring nasa artifacts and space facts. You can even travel to Mars and explore the surface!

    Thanks for sharing this site I really enjoyed it. In 8th grade science we teach a unit on Astronomy. I liked being able to travel and see the Earth from space.

Math Playground in SL - 3 views

    I haven't gotten a chance to check it all out, but this page offers a link to a math playground in SL as well as another website that utilizes web 2.0 to teach math. I think it is funny that we are learning about all of these in our educational technology program, yet my district blocks all the pages from being viewed. I wonder if in the world of cyber bullying we will ever be able to convince the district that there is use for programs like this in the general education curriculum.

    I couldn't find the math playground in SL, but I loved the one on the website! If that site isn't blocked in my district, I am using it on Monday! This will be a great way to get my kids' attention and let them practice some skills they need work on.

    Systems Thinking and Game Design through the eyes of a 4 year old. Interesting observations about the value of games in understanding problem solving and social interactions. Not directly related to virtual worlds - although good for understanding WHY virtual worlds and online games might be valuable student learning experiences.

    A great place to learn how to use your avatar for people like me who are a little frustrated. Plus there is a lot of free stuff to collect. Non-threatening! I didn't have anyone approach me and ask if I liked vampires like I did on Discovery Island. I also acquired a great picture changer there. Some very useful freebies. If you are a collector - go to ISTE.

    I was there too! I appreciated all of the resources and free tools. I got a ISTE t-shirt and hope to be sporting that at the next class.

    I enjoyed the learning aspect at this location, mostly due to its utility and choice. I found it simple to navigate and gain a better understanding of SL.

    Open Sim allows younger students. Here's one example. From website: "If you didn't already know, Open Sim is the free, open source server software based on Second Life. It enables you to run your own sims (or have someone else run them for you) anywhere you want: on your desktop, behind your firewall, at a data centre even in the cloud! These sims can be stand-alone, connected to a grid (though not Second Life itself yet) or now Hypergrid enabled, which allows them to be both stand-alone yet reachable by teleport from other sims and grids."
