Let's Be Virtual 2; Second Life
Hello My Friends. I am here after a short break :) If you read my previous blog posts,
you can see Let's Be Virtual; Voki. Now, Second Life is another virtual thing.
It is an internet-based virtual world launched in 2003.
The game provides its users a second life. Like its name.
You can start the game by creating your own avatar.
You can choose all the features of the Avatar you create.
This game is almost no different from real life.
Professions, community status, living standards, physical differences are just as much in life as in the game.
The game even has its own stock market and currency.
You can transfer and use this currency to your bank account.
Because players can copyright anything they design, they can sell it to other players and make money.
Our teacher said this game in class,
and I questioned what it has to do with education, but we can create everything in a game of second life like in real life.
That gives us the opportunity to create a class.
It seems like a good way to get students to do different activities, attract their attention in classes, or combine education with technology.
We can use this game for distance learning. There are virtual campuses in the game and you can take advantage of them.
There are some virtual universities such as Open University, Harvard, Texas State and Stanford university. Virtual campuses even have projection devices.
For example, you can use it for purposes such as educational institutes, library support, educational courses.
Also, ıt allows you to connect with people from all over the world, make new friends and chat. You can also improve your language.
Such a virtual environment gives students the ability to use technological tools.
Second life in the context of Education provides a rich environment for learning, socialization, research, discovery and creativity.
After registering and activating the game, it becomes ready to download to the computeķr. Now it's time to play.
