Week 15

December 1, 2008

Reminder! We will meet in the Krannert Library Computer Lab to explore Second Life, at our usual time (11:30). Here are the directions:

The library is the 2nd floor of the Krannert Building… and the computer area is now on the east side of the building (it was just moved because of the remodeling, so there are plenty of signs as you come in.)

Before this meeting (and if you don't already have an account and avatar) try to download the Second Life software, create your account, and complete the tasks on Orientation Island. To get access to the Purdue Island, you'll need to join the group "Purdue Guest."

What's due . . .

  • Update your Big Project log.
  • Update your Small Project log, as needed.

Developing Your Avatar in Second Life

See if you can spruce up your avatar so that you aren't tagged as a newbie even if you're not entirely, like Professor Blakesley. We'll watch this video tutorial in class.
