What is Second Life English?
The Second Life English group has been helping language learners and teachers in the virtual world of Second Life since 2006. Our past activities were mainly held at the English Village where we organized weekly team-teaching events and assisted learners and teachers in various ways.
The Second Life English SIM is a free resource for language learners and teachers. We are not a school. We are a community of language learners and teachers who share the desire to use the virtual world of Second Life for the learning and teaching of foreign languages.
Our goals are:
- to help language learners and teachers connect
- to offer free advertisement to language teachers, groups, schools and "conversation partners" (so-called language buddies)
- to help language learners and teachers by answering questions, giving tips and freely sharing ideas about Second Life and learning/teaching in Second Life
- to make language teachers aware of useful tools and resources in Second Life
- to suggest ways of supplementing the SL learning/teaching experience
- to offer free language learning/teaching activities such as team-teaching and workshops
- to continuously develop the Second Life English SIM
- to help promote a culture of online and life-long learning
- to encourage the idea that all of Second Life is "the classroom"
- to help interconnect the various language communities in Second Life
- to encourage communication and cultural awareness/understanding
- to promote the idea that we are all learners and potential teachers
Our main objective is to help EMPOWER language learners and teachers!
The Second Life English SIM (island) is a free resource/community. All language teachers and learners are welcome to join us and make use of the SIM (our "virtual island" in Second Life).
