Virtual worlds as learning sites provide a number of potentially rich learning opportunities for students.

One of these is project work and another is control of the learning environment.

At the moment, the virtual world that probably offers learners the greatest degree of control of the learning environment, and probably the lowest barrier of entry to that creation, is Second Life.


Alongside the of ten noted increased sense of presence, coupling project work with student control of the learning environment seems likely to be a high-value exploitation of virtual worlds for learning.
