Second life
Second Life (SL) is a virtual world that enables users to interact with each other through three-dimensional self images called “avatars”. In SL, “residents” can explore, socialize, participate in and organize different group activities, from parties to virtual conferences on almost any topic. Second Life is used as a platform for education by many institutions, such as colleges, universities, libraries and government entities. Instructors and researchers prefer Second Life as a more personal mean for distance learning.
Here’s my picture (Lourdes Galaxy) exploring my surroundings during my first visit to SL:
I have a Bachelor in Education from Universidad Central de Venezuela. Even before my graduation I started working as an English teacher. During the past years, I have taught the language to elementary, middle and high school students. Right now, I am doing a Master´s in English as a Foreign Language. I’m currently teaching English in a private secondary school in Los Teques, to students from 7th to 9th Grade, whose ages range from 12 to 15 years old.
