NMC: Educators staying in SL, using it for more teaching and learning

The New Media Consortium have released the results of their 2008 Second Life educators survey. A rich source of data giving a broad view of educational activity in Second Life.

Key findings this year are that more educators have moved from ‘exploring’ the potential of Second Life to actively using it for teaching and learning, and the average respondent now has over a year of experience with Second Life. As before, the majority of educators responding to the survey are not significant ‘gamers’ – “more than 75% do not play console games or MMORPGs”.
