Abstract

Will teaching in a virtual environment really be the next big thing? A number of institutions and faculty think so, and that number is growing. This group brings together those who want to discuss how virtual learning environments like Second Life impact all facets of the institution, from technology to teaching. The Virtual Worlds Constituent Group meets each year at the EDUCAUSE Annual Conference and strives to meet at all regional conferences. For more information, visit www.educause.edu/groups/vw, where you can also sign up for our mailing list. This discussion session is open to all conference attendees.
