I have mixed feelings about online learning in our school system. Yes, it is great where time is concerned but I worry about the social aspect of it. I know as college students we experience good teachers and not so good teachers. I realize that the teachers November is talking about are highly trained and experienced. I also know that there are many differant styles of learning and some students need that face to face interaction to be successful. I see positives and negitives with online learning.
As far as Second Life, I know it appears to take a lot of time to set up. I don't know many teachers that would dedicate their time to such a large project. Yes, I think it is amazing what all can be done with it and students would probably love it, but I'm just not sure how much teacher involvement you would get.
