Don't Panic

You may not be able to get into SL tonight. Looks like Linden's servers are having problems again.

Please see: http://status.secondlifegrid.net/2008/05/30/post91/ for updates and to check when SL will be back online.

May 2008 snapshot of UK HE and FE developments in SL

This report summarises an investigation into the use and uptake of Second Life (SL) by UK Higher and Further Education. The research, carried out in the period up until May 2008, had four main goals:

* to determine the "state of play" of SL developments within the Higher and Further Education sector,
* to discover how these developments are supported, in terms of time, funding and other resources,
* to explore the functionality of these developments, i.e. which types of media or interactive service they incorporate,
* to establish how "busy", or well-used, the developments have been and discover any impacts resulting from their implementation and use.
