SL Continues

This past week I worked on the following:

• Created notecards on the following: Taking a Snapshot, Camera Control, Communicating with Chat, Chat History, and Instant Message. I dropped these into Zaia's eOwens' inventory. I used Rezed.org's curriculum guides, which I learned about at the SL Convention. I personalized them for our purposes. I also created one on Inviting Friends, but I haven't dropped this one yet.
• Talked with Mark about the YouTube videos for Owens' ads. He will work with AC on converting these files so we can work with them in SL.
• Purchased a YouTube video viewer, but I'm having difficulty with it. One problem is that I don't have rights (or permissions) on our Island, and that seems to be a problem with using this viewer.
• Continued to teleport to various islands to learn what is available.
• Continued to read daily the SLED Educators Digest and the Slrl Digest (research). Oftentimes, these have some valuable information and resources. Thanks to Delicious, I can tag any of these resources and access them from any computer. This is a great program.
• Ordered and received the following books, which I learned about from attending the SL Convention: The Wisdom of Crowds, Here Comes Everybody, and The Tipping Point.
• Attended the GTAC-ASTD monthly meeting on the "10 M's of Engagement." Interesting information was shared. Plus, I was interested in learning if any of the members have used Second Life and while I didn't talk with everyone, those I did seemed to know about SL but not using it. Since ASTD has an island, I thought some would know about it. Additionally, there were quite a few trainers at the SL Convention so I wondered if anything was being done with SL in our area.
• Continued to perfect my SL PowerPoint Presentation "A Second Life Primer."
  

This week I plan to attend some workshops in SL. Still looking for a good one on role playing. Plus, I have a lot of research to do.
