Do you use Second Life to teach English? Have you thought of using Second Life as a professional development tool? Many English teachers do. It’s amazing what goes on in this virtual world. If you’re interested in learning more, here is a recorded presentation from last week’s Virtual Round Table conference.

This weekend, English teacher and Second Life user Shelly Terrell invited ESL-Library to submit a poster for a unique poster presentation in Second Life. Those who attended the Slanguages conference were able to go right up to the posters to get a closer look.  We decided to submit a poster of our FREE Chilean Miners lessons. Over 2000 people have downloaded this lesson now. Did you know that it is available as a lower level and upper intermediate level lesson? Both versions come with an MP3 file that you can download and use in class.

Be sure to check out some of the other great programs, websites, ebooks, and services for English teachers mentioned in the poster presentation.

Thanks for the invitation Shelly/Rainey! We hope the conference was superb. (It’s cool how your dress even blows in the breeze! )
