Thanks to those who came!



Dear students

It was a great experience we had in SL together. I hope we can have more valuable meetings there.
This event was just about learning SL itself. And you learned it very well. Yet you need to improve.
I really thank those who came. Especially, those who came for both sessions.

I try to put the questionnaire by today. There are some amendments I should do.

I need around 60 students to do the questionnaire for me. So please check the SL yourself any time you can and then answer the questionnaire. It really means a lot to me.

I hope you enjoyed it.

All the best.
Ahmad

Second Life Introduction!


Dear all


This is a research about this useful tool called Second Life.

To be more elaborate, it is an online 3D social network where you can be a member of by free and have a second life. It means you can have another or the same character as the real life.



You can do everything you want and it has different usages.

You can explore the environment and enjoy.

You can make friends and keep in touch with them.

You can get educated there without going physically to the place.



And a lot of other things which you can do with this great tool.



The research we are doing is to find out your opinion and perception about the SL as a learning tool.



It may be new to you and you need to be introduced to it. I will explain it briefly in the class.

Then you need to attend a virtual class there in SL. and after that you need to fill up a questionnaire which just take a few minutes from you guys.



The good news is that you will get marks of participation. Attendance is mandatory for all.



I hope you guys have fun using SL.



Regards
