Yesterday I had the opportunity to talk about Second Life in Higher Education at the CASE conference in Baltimore. Here are the links to resources I mentioned, plus many additional links I promised I would post. This is new territory for many - only one person in a room of 100+ acknowledged being a SL resident.

A big thanks to the many people who’ve written inspiring pieces and posted videos about what’s happening in with education in Second Life. Just a few of them are listed below.
