  5.

For example, The new Intel Software Network area will offer online training, Webcasts, and meet-the-experts events, as well as the "Braniac Warbots" contest, where developers will be able to use the Second Life standard Linden Scripting Language (LSL) to build robots that compete. QES…meeting
  6. Educational Uses of SecondLife (video) : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJTzNSV8pb0 SL allows the creation of environments for distance learning, simulations and corporate training where individuals can practice skills, try new ideas, and learn from their mistakes in a safe environment. University of Southern California is exploring how virtual worlds can be used as effective tools to bridge cultural gaps, to foster new ways to resolve conflict and to learn and teach new skills in dealing with each other to build a better world. The University of Houston uses it in a Design Economics course where designers test their design and entrepreneurial skills in a virtual market. IBM is using it to expedite orientation and improve mentoring. New employees from India, China and the US use avatars to mingle, interact and share ideas before their first day at work. They Intel’s Second Life area has links to Web content, webcasts, online training, videos, Web sites, and blogs.

Blended model follows Rossett and Frazee’s (2006) anchor blended model, which recommends the use of independent interactions with online resources – assessment, exercises, reference - after a classroom event. Starts with IL class, followed by mobile modules, text messages, and mobile/online survey.
