Virtual Worlds & Health Environments in Second Life®

Emergency Preparedness: Mass Prophylaxis Clinic Training (UC Davis)

Created and released by Linden Lab in 2003, Second Life® has become a well-known 3-D real-time virtual environment and social network that has over a million residents and is rapidly increasing in popularity as a teaching and collaborative research tool. Universities are now offering courses (and entire post-graduate degree programs) exclusively within the Second Life® environment. Researchers are finding this environment, without the constraints of the physical world, to enhance collaboration and speed discovery. This multi-media talk will include speakers presenting from the classroom as well as from within the Second Life® environment. Speakers will show a variety of successful programs to include teaching, research collaboration, retail and public education environments.
