just came back from florida – a whirlwind tour through the state university system talking with lecturers and the wonderful dev team behind cndg. these guys have been using second life in a way i have not seen implemented before: smart and easy to use for professor and student alike.

we met at the stem powered conference in gainesville and visited tallahassee as well as orlando. a forthcoming drax files video will examine the work of cndg in second life but everyone please do have patience = publish date will be just before holiday season.

meantime at a lunch panel ceo bill prensky presented to a partially completely n00b audience of interested teachers the concept of virtual learning.

enjoy:
