Second Life class room experience

The Second Life class room experience was very intersting, and it's pretty cool that in today's society, a class can be held in cyber space. I liked the Second Life Class because it allowed for good discussion and everyone to participate, I think people were probably less hesitant to speak out in Second Life than they would be in class. It had a small "class room" feel to it, but for the most part, it felt like everyone in class had got together to talk about cyber space and it's regulability. I still don't understand Second Life completely, how to do certain things and I was having trouble teleporting so that put a damper on my experience. I have to say I would prefer a real class room setting to the one in cyber space because it is a little more controlled, and I'm not as easily distracted as I am in cyberspace. The discussion in Second Life was good, but there were so many things going on at once it got a little confusing at times. I think Second Life class room would be fun to do a few more times, and it was definitly an experience!
