Good den. Renaissance Island was one of the early pioneers in helping students and educators maximize the benefits of Second Life in the classroom. It grew into a diverse cultural community interested in English history and culture of the Tudor period. Created by librarians with the sponsorship of the Alliance Library Services, Renaissance Island began in February 2007. Now sponsored by the South Central Regional Library Council located in Ithaca, New York, Renaissance Island is in its 13th year in Second Life. The region is supported by its residents and donations. We have storytelling and music performers. On occasion, we have jousting, horse racing and other sports that we enjoy today. Renaissance Island is open to all educators teaching this aspect of English history, free of charge. If you wish to have a tour of the region before bringing a class, contact Baroness Anne de Darcy(Amza Hydraconis) via notecard. Thank you -

Virtual Worlds Best Practices in Education: Learning Made in Second Life
Linden Lab posted a blog entry in Featured News
Educators from across the globe are gathering together in Second Life for the 13th annual Virtual Worlds Best Practices in Education (VWBPE) Conference, held March 26-28. In this time of a global public health crisis and as many educators and conference organizers are looking for online alternatives to replace their in-person meet-ups, Second Life is offering a unique alternative: a sense of presence and community that can not simply be replicated via screen sharing or webinars. For example, another high-profile conference, MuseWeb, recently opted to quickly relocate some of its sessions to Second Life after its 24th annual event in Los Angeles had to be canceled because of concerns over the coronavirus outbreak. In Second Life, conference attendees can experience events through virtual conference rooms, theatres, exposition halls, meeting spaces, and other types of venues similar to a brick and mortar type conference. Many different styles of avatars are ready-made for immediate use and customization options - as you can see in today's video - are limitless to express yourself as you wish. This week’s “Made in Second Life” video takes a closer look at the VWBPE Conference including an interview with Executive Director Kevin Feenan, known in Second Life as Phelan Corrimal. “We want to challenge educators to think beyond a two-dimensional space,” says Feenan. “What are you going to do in this environment if there is no ground beneath your feet? How can you truly leverage a three-dimensional space?” “It’s a much more dynamic environment than simply going to a webinar,” he adds. “It’s about making those personal connections with other people who can relate to the challenges you are going through in trying to understand something new.” “People can get together - they can talk, dance, and party (so to speak). As long as their avatar is online, they can pop in and connect with friends [and] new people,” he says. Feenan has been a long-time advocate for use of virtual worlds in education through his work with VWBPE and also his role at Rockcliffe University Consortium, an online organization dedicated to the advancement of technology in education. “Second Life is the most utilitarian application that is out there,” says Feenan. “Second Life is part of the educator toolbox to allow students to experience how to resolve problems by focusing on those particular things that you might not be able to do inside a classroom. Among the academics presenting at this year’s event are Dr. Michael Thomas, Daniel Dyboski-Bryant, Lorelle VanFossen, and Dr. Robert Furman.

VWBPE 2020 Conference The Virtual Worlds Best Practice in Education (VWBPE), held March 26th to 28th, is a community-based conference that provides opportunities for participants in all virtual worlds to share current teaching, learning, and research practices in 3D virtual environments.

What: Host Boot Camp Date: Wednesday February 12th Time: 6pm - 9pm (maybe longer if we need more practice time) Where: ~ Waves ~ http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Hidden Serenity/132/62/1264 Everyone is welcome! New hosts, experienced hosts, people who have never hosted but are curious, everyone! We also welcome any club owners that want to join us and let people know that they're hiring. What is Host Boot Camp? We've found that part of the reason there aren't as many hosts available is that some people don't know how, or are intimidated by the idea. So to help people feel comfortable with hosting, we're having this free class. We will have instruction time, with questions and answers, followed by practice time, where each person will have the chance to send group notices, and work on stage with a live DJ for a few minutes. We're just teaching the basics, so that people will be able to work at any club after this and be able to customize their training to work within the club's rules. And, we're hiring! So anyone who finishes the course is welcome to put in an application at the same time. Questions? Talk to Cara Lionheart or our Staff Manager Lυηαтαѕια Rєιη (neomamoon)

To Whom it May Concern, I have recently visited one of the best sims I have seen in Secondlife and the only one in recent past I wanted to take my actual real life daughter who has an account here to visit. The website is full of stores selling junk I don't need as well as disturbing fetish sims. Yet, I have discovered this wonderful site called "Exploratorium" and Scilands which offers wonderful builds of the solar system and space exploration and functions like a real life museum with many wonders to see. I have recently found out that it will actually be deleted at the end of THIS MONTH due to inability to pay for the Sim, and that Linden is shutting it down after having given it for free from April to Dec 2019. I am protesting this. If I cannot take my daughter there when she can finally login to Secondlife (because she's a full time ER hospital staff as well as a full time student in nursing and has limited time), then I think I will be so disappointed. I have spend 1000s of Lindens on objects for my land plus a land tier and 2 premium accounts for me and her. I am highly considering cancelling my accounts if they will not continue to support this project for free because I think it should be a public service. If someone is willing to go into Secondlife and create a huge scientific or educational project that benefits the entire community, I believe Linden should allow them to have a free grant sim to do this, it is a lot of work to create these builds, and many people have jobs with limited time to do such a project and are volunteering to create it for the public and not profit. Therefore Linden should support these types of projects. Without these, many people will not come to Secondlife who wish to have regular nice and exploratory, educational, and fun experiences here and it will be abandoned to only people who wish to live out secret "secondlife" fetishes of a disturbing nature. Please take this into consideration and continue to allow this to continue as a public benefit. Thank you.

I've been wondering on ways to really involve myself with the SL community and finally decided to offer Spanish lessons for Beginners. Lesson plan is individualized and custom to each person's availability, etc. I've minored in Spanish, and it's also my first language so I'm fully fluent. I'd love to help you guys learn or practice. Message me in world, SolsticeCarlet aka SolsticeSnow We can discuss prices, classes, packages, lessons, etc. I'm not looking to charge an arm and a leg either btw. I'm very flexible -
I have been in SL for a little under a year and I have very few places I actually thoroughly enjoy. Specific Places I Need Recommendations in All types of Stores - Animations - Furniture - Hair - Shoes - Accessories - Mesh Heads - Clothes - ETC ! I Use Maitreya Body ! Hangout spots of all kinds, places I can meet new people and friends in a welcoming community. Anywhere with beautiful Scenery, good for photography and/or exploring Gaming sims that is legal in all states (If it's possible) I've been dying to check one out; either General or moderate i'm guessing Job agencies and Educational Sims of any kind. If I did not list anything you would recommend me, Tell me anyways because I want to broaden my horizons. Also feel free to IM me in game. I should be on for a bit - Vimerietta

Are you currently at school? Or do you have a school-aged child? I'm currently studying a Certificate IV in Education Support (Teacher Aide/Assistant), and assist students in the classroom once a week for placement. I am happy to help you, or your child, with any work you may have so as to help me gain my experience. The subjects I excel in are Literacy, English, Inquiry and Bounce Back lessons.But I am also happy to help where I can in Maths and other subjects(just be sure to let me know what subjects). The age groups I am currently working with in schools is Grade Foundation(before Grade 1),1, 2,3,4 and 5. However, I did complete every year of my schooling so will do my best to aide in any higher grades. The lessons will be held isl at a library, my place, or if you have your own land, or would rather elsewhere, I am happy to tp over to you. For the younger ones, e.g. your child, I am more than happy to move it to Discord or elsewhere, with your supervision. Because this is intended to be a little business as well, there will be a charge. But fear not, because you do not even need to pay me straight away! The first lesson will be free, and then I will only charge 20L a lesson. That's right, a lesson! Not by the hour! (I crash a lot which is why I'm not charging by the hour) If you don't like my tutoring in the free lesson, you don't need to keep organising lessons with me. This also applies to those of you who are roleplaying school or children in school isl, because any experience is experience for me, especially if your teachers are teaching you things they would teach in actual school! So if you feel like you'd like to hire me, reply to this post or send me an IM and I will give you a notecard with my availabilities!

Hello everyone. The reason as to why I am making this post is because at school we have been assigned to do a project about SecondLife, where we can choose to focus on one specific topic. I have chosen to go with education. Like how it works to get an education at a university or college, how the "classes" work, things of that nature. Basically, how it works. Since we just started this project today and I have only heard of SL before, but have never played it until today, where I was only in for a brief period, and I didn`t know what I was doing, like at all. So, I have no idea how all of this works. I would really appreciate if you could write about your experiences with taking an education in Second Life, so that I could potentially use it in my project. Thank you in advance.

Hi, all! So what exactly are the Indigo, Crystal, Rainbow, Cusp Children, Star-Seeds/Star-people, Blue-Rays, Walk-Ins, and Walk-Outs? ...Do you have constant trouble fitting in, feel out of place all the time, or ever felt so very glaringly different from your peers? -You might just be an Otherbeing! Come learn what that means from the most knowledgeable teacher on the subject, that I am honored to have at Zamargad! This class and will be taught in voice. Check out the webby for more details: https://majikvixen.wixsite.com/zamargad/upcoming-classes Lady Gwen's webby: https://gwendolynndedannan.wordpress.com/ We had so much fun at other classes, it would be a shame to miss out on this one: https://majikvixen.wixsite.com/zamargad/previous-classes Friday, September 7th, 12PM/Noon SLT http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Zamargad/132/175/21 Hope to see you there with open minds and hearts! -
Hey everyone, I have been on Second Life for 3 weeks and I'm in love with the damn thing. Although there's one issue. I want to be successful and shoot high. I want to learn and start earning lindens in any way possible I can. Let's start by stating my RL talents and skills. I am a very good singer. I used to sing on stage at charity events just because I loved to do it. And felt confident doing so. I used to do sound and DJ IRL for live events, (Charity work and For an example a huge event in Montana called Rockin the Rivers) I am very skilled in anything music. You see I grew up in a very musical and ambitious family. I stream video games at the moment and have been told I am very positive and very entertaining. I am very good at Video Angles and Lighting. Also have grew up playing video games and am very Tech Savvy. I pick up things fast. I am very persuasive and a have a great skill at writing. I adapt well, and am also very good at speech. I want to know everything and anything from the basics of Building, to Even the advanced of scripting, creating. I have been trying to find youtube videos to try and find out out to Create, Resell and everything in between. The problem is there are very little. I am very willing to learn and I need your help. About 2 weeks into SL I got a job as a dancer/escort and sometimes host at a club. (Yes very quickly I know) But that's just me, I'm ambitious. Problem is I barely make anything and Dancing/Escorting is not really my thing. I want to do something I may enjoy. Like for example Photography. I know nothing about photo shop or even have it. Although I would love to learn about how to actually do something. I have a lot of time on my hands IRL and I want to make something out of it. Now I have a full Maitreya body mesh, face mesh and an AO. I own 2 properties and I have quite a few selection of outfits. I caught on to the whole alpha's and how to change clothes pretty fast. I am looking for someone who can kind of guide me into the world of SL. Someone who can possibly teach me something that will make me of some value. I want to know what makes the best amount of money and just go by that. I want to try and resell other peoples creations. Because I have no skill in creating at all. I tried a few times in IMVU and tried making a tattoo and a shirt in Sl. Didn't go so well. I'm looking for someone who can educate me in this world that feels so real to me. I know there are schools InWorld but I just can't learn that way. Plus I'm not much of a role player. I want to do the real stuff. If you feel you could be of any help to me, and have a skill in pretty much anything in SL I'd be willing to pay in L$. I'll be InWorld and also will be checking the forums very frequently. Even if you have questions or comments regarding anything I have said on this forum I'd be more than happy to answer. -
