Hey there! I am Berk from Second Life. My world is a virtual one. So, I live but it is different from your lives a bit. Here, I am not a part of the real world but it doesn't mean that I cannot do the things that you do. Here I can get an education, have fun, meet new people and more! Let me explain my world to you shortly. Second Life is a 3D application including many regions and dimensions. Each dimension has its own type and necessity. For example, there is an art dimension here, in that dimension, you can chat with people about art, get new friends, and examine pieces of art. On the other hand, you can travel to another dimension and you can do roleplay there. Moreover, you can arrange meetings with your friends and have tea here. Furthermore, did you know that we get an education here also? There are virtual classes that we can take lessons from our teacher. In some circumstances that may interrupt face to face lessons, we can have a class here that may provide the classroom environment. Even there is no event like that, integrating the technology into education might be efficient for the quality of it. Also, it can provide more chances to talk to my shy friends. You can join the class in a view and name as you wish!
So, to sum up,
+Second Life will provide you a both fun and deductive environment.
+It is a perfect environment to use technology in an educational way.
+As it is a unique style, students may be more motivated to attend class and join activities.
+Full anonymity will make the students more relax and more talkative.
+You can arrange classes in a class environment from long distances, even between continents.
