Play2Train

Since SL is really slow today while Linden Labs work out some bugs, I thought I would highlight a great Internet site with lots of information on how one university professor and his colleagues from many public agencies use SecondLife to train medical personnel for all types of disasters. Through the use of "disaster scenarios", personnel are trained virtually to prepare by developing "cognitive maps" of plausible future disasters.

See more information (including video clips of the 2 SL sites) at:

I think that this takes T&D to a new height. Well Done!!

Country Hoe-Down

I visited Monroe College (149, 186, 21) for a country hoe-down at their grand opening to celebrate the work of the Monroe Office of Online Learning Internships.

They had a nice dancing area, merry-go-round and an old fashioned hayride providing a tour of SL. It was a wonderful way to learn more about their internships and also make new friends in SL ! Way to Go!

Light Up My Life
