As part of the fifth birthday celebrations in Second Life, I’ve been asked by the folks at Linden Lab to coordinate a roundtable on language learning and teaching n Second Life. Here are the details:
Language Learning & Teaching in SL: a roundtable with…
- Dudeney Ge (Director, EduNation)
- Iffaf Ling (Teacher Trainer, LanguageLab)
- Head Teacher (Director of Studies, LanguageLab)
- Daf Smirnov (Spanish Courses, LanguageLab)
- Baldric Commons (Project Leader, British Council)
- Howie Yokishawa (CEO Avatar Languages)
- Calisto Encinal (Glendale Community College, Arizona).
Monday July 7th, 12:00 noon PST (21:00 CEST)
In this roundtable we’ll be discussing the advancements made in language teaching and language teacher training over the past two years and considering the core skills needed to get started, as well as approaches, tools and content that work well in SL. Our mixed panel includes teachers, teacher trainers and materials designers and we look forward to a lively debate followed by even livelier audience discussion.
We hope to see some of you there for some moral support and some cheeky questions and comments!
Hey
I’m sorry I didn’t see this opportunity at the time
Was anything recorded or published as a result that I might be able to read/experience??

Alan,
It was a while ago – I suspect that if there was a recording, it probably doesn’t exist any longer.
