Want to Attend a Conference IN Second Life? Free?

I got this notice from East Carolina University today. They East Carolina University sent this notice about their Second Life Conference IN Second Life on November 10 and 11, 2008.


"We are very excited about the conference and the proposals that were submitted. The conference is focused on the uses of virtual worlds for instructional purposes and we have some wonderful presentations to share with you as well as resources. We will be sending out additional information shortly.

If you have anyone you know that would like to register, please share the following link with them. We are still accepting them at this time.

Never been in Second Life but are curious? You'll need to get an avatar (SL character) to attend the conference cand it would be helpful to go through some orientation--one I like to recommend is from New Media Consortium because its resources were created in response to feedback from
higher educators: http://sl.nmc.org/wiki/Getting_Started
