Second Life
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_life
.
Second Life is an online virtual world developed by Linden Lab which was
launched on June 23, 2003. A number of free client programs called
Viewers[1][2] enable Second Life users, called Residents, to interact with
each other through avatars. Residents can explore the world (known as the
grid), meet other residents, socialize, participate in individual and
group activities, and create and trade virtual property and services with
one another. Second Life is intended for people aged 13 and over,[3] and
as of 2011 has more than 20 million registered user accounts.
.
Built into the software is a three-dimensional modeling tool based around
simple geometric shapes that allows residents to build virtual objects.
There is also a procedural scripting language, Linden Scripting Language,
which can be used to add interactivity to objects. More complex
three-dimensional sculpted prims (colloquially known as sculpties),
textures for clothing or other objects, and animations and gestures can be
created using external software. The Second Life Terms of Service provide
that users retain copyright for any content they create, and the server
and client provide simple digital rights management functions.[3]

Virtual learning environment
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_learning_environment
.
A virtual learning environment (VLE) is a system designed to support
teaching and learning in an educational setting, as distinct from a
Managed Learning Environment (MLE), where the focus is on
management.
