Some Reflections on the Second Life

Actually, I came across the Second Life last year. The seminar was held by the British Council. My school did not buy such programme because of the management issues.

However, it is a very good programme for students to learn English through a more interactive way with others worldwide. Even those autistic students can benefit from it because they do not need to meet the “friends” face to face but with another identity in the virtual world.

However, teachers and parents guidance is needed because the Second Life is too powerful for students to learn. They may have no idea where to go and what to learn. But I think secondary students can manage it.
