Hey, when I was reading through the article titles, this one grabbed my attention, and I bet you know why! Until this year, I hadn’t ever even heard of Second Life, but after Rozema presented it in class, I am amazed by it.
Second Life, the virtual online world that is catching the attention of colleges and universities for its educational possibilities, hasn’t been an option for middle school use because of its age limit.
