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.

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. -

Hi! Another user was so kind to make a bilingual vocabulary memory game for me once: Two matching words in the respective two languages must be matched by clicking them. When the two words match, one of the two is moved on top of the other one. The game is here: https://forums.osgrid.org/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=6116 On the basis of that script I think it should be possible to make a jiggsaw puzzle. It can already be done through the above mentioned script: One piece is the actual puzzle piece, with a texture of a piece from a photo /text /painting etc. The other piece lies on the ground as a background for that picture, with no texture. Several of these background pieces lie next to each other on the ground. The script of each background piece matches one of the puzzle pieces. When the two to matching ones are clicked, the puzzle piece is moved onto its corresponding background piece, and thus, it is in the correct place. This is repeated with all other puzzle pieces until the puzzle is finished. The problem is the following: This makes it possible to randomly click pieces together, without thinking. What I would like to have is this: Each puzzle piece can be matched with each background piece and no correct solution is given in the script. When a piece is clicked a second time, it moves back to its original position. This means the player must solve the puzzle through looking and thinking, like a normal jigsaw puzzle. Do you maybe have any ideas for this? There might also be completely different approaches for this. Thank you very much in advance!

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 last time, it would be a shame to miss out again: https://majikvixen.wixsite.com/zamargad/previous-classes Friday, August 10th, 4PM SLT http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Zamargad/132/175/21 Hope to see you there! -
Hi all. I sent the following issue to the Lindens in a ticket. They replied and made a lot of effort to try and solve my problem, but in the end they couldn't solve it and suggested I re-post my issue to the forums. Sorry for the long post. Any guidance hugely appreciated ? ----------------------------------------------------------------- For the last couple of years my students have been using a HUD (see above) I designed to allow chatted text in Chinese characters output by the NPCs in our region to display on a prim face using the following: html = "data:text/html;charset=utf-8," + llEscapeURL(html); llSetPrimMediaParams(0, // Side to display the media on. [ PRIM_MEDIA_AUTO_PLAY,TRUE, // Show this page immediately PRIM_MEDIA_CURRENT_URL,html, // The url currently showing PRIM_MEDIA_HOME_URL,html, // The url if they hit 'home' PRIM_MEDIA_HEIGHT_PIXELS,100, // Height/width of media texture will be //512 PRIM_MEDIA_WIDTH_PIXELS,220]); // rounded up to nearest power of 2.} Up until I installed the latest version of Firestorm (5.1.7 (55786)) yesterday, the prim face was always white, so the text displayed clearly on the HUD. From yesterday, the prim face turns very dark (see attached photos) as soon as the text is sent to the prim face (via llListen). The Chinese character text can still be read, but it is very hard as the prim face is so dark. I did contact the Firestorm help group and they suggested I try the latest SL viewer, which I did. The result was the same as for the Firestorm viewer. They suggested that if this is the case I should contact you to see if you might be able to give me any leads as to what might be suddenly causing this problem. My students will be starting lessons in the next week and I am really concerned that this problem is going to make it difficult for them to complete the tasks set. Any guidance would be hugely appreciated. If you would like to obtain a copy of the HUD (Chinese Island HUD KV21 (WEAR OR ATTACH)) for testing, one can be obtained at the following location by clicking the red sign "Chinese Island HUD": http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Monash%20University%202/116/194/26 To get the NPC there to say something to you, please input the following into chat: /3 你好 This will cause him to respond with 您好. Once again, any guidance you can offer would be hugely appreciated. Thank you! Kaylee

Rockcliffe University Consortium Conference The Future Present November 9-10, 2018 Fort Mason Center San Francisco, California The Annual Rockcliffe University Consortium Conference (RUCC) takes traditional conferencing methods and converts them into experiential ones. Attendees can expect a dynamic mixture of sessions, excursions, and critical discussion, all around the topic of innovative technology and its application to education, and how the two can impact our students’ preparedness for the digital world. November is looking charged with possibilities. If you don’t attend the Future Present conference in San Francisco, you will be missing out on more than just mere presentations. You will be missing out on an experience. The first major view into our dynamic program starts with the announcement of our two keynotes, who epitomize the Future Present for their innovative practices and their exciting ideas of what education for the future should be. Dr. Pamela Redmond, who is tinkering with the schema of school daily as she directs the innovation lab she founded. Dr. Chris Haskell, who exemplifies the bold and playful adventurer that knows education can be both fun and meaningfully connected to the 21st century. They are just the start of more surprises to come from the Future Present. Early bird registration is open until June 17, 2018, with final registration closing on August 31, 2018. The best experience will be live--wait until you find out about the mixed reality game!--but if you can’t travel to San Francisco and don’t want to miss these dynamic speakers, we also have a virtual registration option that will give you access to their streamed presentations. Reserve your spot now and get ready to recharge your profession with us in November.

architect Hire to build or WTB College / University Building
FatherTheo posted a topic in Inworld Employment
Did any of you end up holding on to some of the old college or university buildings from sims that ran when educational institutions were all over the place? Or have any of you created / are any of you willing to create something of the sort? The ones in the market just aren't all that exciting. I'd like to obtain a few to make a small campus. Please Notecard/PM in game - fathertheo. Let me know your price, and let's meet at a sandbox so I can get a look at what you've got. Thanks!!! -
It is a horrible video, quality-wise. But, some interesting content. Runs 55 minutes. I have an index up with each question time marked: http://blog.nalates.net/2018/03/19/more-ebbe-altberg-from-2018-vwbpe/ You can quickly skim the questions and go for those that interest you. For SL residents there isn't much in the way of new information. Unfortunately Ebbe and Bret apparently did NOT control the quality of the recording. The render looks like something from 10-years ago. Maybe they can get some quality control going for interviews, like must use computer built after the change over from stone to silicon... And is use of Classic avatars for Lindens meeting the public a policy thing? And those Places Pages... has anyone found one of those in a search engine yet? Is the 'Do NOT Index' flag set or what!?! At least if you search for Second Life for educators you get this page: http://go.secondlife.com/landing/education/ That works. The second result is a wiki page: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Second_Life_Education/Resources. (Bret did update the wiki page in Feb 2018) So, there are Linden pages that place well in search results.

(You are welcome to check the success of Tara's Creations on the MP or InWorld). This is not a hook-up club, nor a dating club. It is meant for serious issues in a wonderful fun environment. This is the basic idea behind Woman-2-Woman This is a paid position, and is not related to selling clothing in Tara's Creations. You will need the following qualifications: You are serious about woman's issues in our modern world. You are reliable and trustworthy. You know how to navigate SL Marketing and Groups. You can find (with help) decent lectures on issues that are of interest to Women. You can use Voice (this is critical). You are a great organizer. You spend a lot of time in SL and have been in SL for at least 18-24 months. You are easy to get along with, a great marketer, and devoted to the modern issues which women face both in Real and in SL. If you meet the above qualifications please contact Tara Simone [Random Sixpence] by IM or Notecard. These days due to rl my hours in SL are limited, so if you cannot catch me on line please send me a notecard about your qualifications and interests. If you know anyone who is interested (and you are not) please pass this information along to them. -
