Today I went into TC Educator to build more items in Second Life to implement into my math lessons and I saw that some other people were there exploring the island. I met one of them who told me all about SciLand (a land devoted to educating teens in the sciences). There lands are affiliated and sponsored by NASA, JPL, and other science organizations.
I actually met the Director of one of the lands I think was called the Science School. He told me that he'd like to connect with TC and I informed him about what TC Ed Zone is doing. We teleported to his land, and he showed me around a little and told me about what they're trying to do. He works at the University of Denver in Physics and Astronomy. He's going to introduce me to some people who will be lead me on a tour of their lands (13 of them), and inform me about what they're trying to do with mathematics.
This is so cool.
