[SL] Presenting at the Games, Learning & Society Conference
We were honored to be invited to present our work in Second Life at the second annual Games, Learning & Society Conference, held June 15-16, 2006 in Madison, Wisconsin. It was a fantastic event, with many brilliant and warm people doing inspiring work from around the country.
Global Kids had the opportunity to present GK Island at a morning session alongside other educators using Second Life and then later in the day on a panel with educators working with teens to build games.
Below are some photos from the earlier session, taken by Intellagirl:
Um, okay, that last image is not from my presentation. I learned how to play Guitar Hero. Cool game! But what you can't see, under my headsets, is the wireless earpiece piping in the main presentation. Listening to amazing speakers on theories of games and learning WHILE mastering Guitar Hero? What could be a better conference than this?

I knew Barry wouldn't be able to resist playing Guitar Hero :P Got any video footage of the presentation?
They say they have the whole thing filmed. When it is available we will put it up -- Barry
