I was talking to a friend the other day over lunch about the educational possibilities of Second Life (SL) for education. Neither of us being experts in the current uses of SL for teaching, we wondered if there was the equivalent of a whiteboard for in-world lectures. This evening As I was looking over Moodle plug-ins, I found one for SL that linked to what looks like PowerPoint for SL.
Included: a site devoted to using SL with Moodle, with a whitepaper on the subject.
