Hi Folks: This afternoon’s lecture on Setting up a Learning Center in Second Life will be mostly in WizIQ with the option of taking a tour of the still-under-reconstruction Learning Center in Second Life towards the end of the hour. The SLURL for the Learning Center is available on the Poster Board in the SLHQ but if you go there, the Learning Center is actually next door, one door down to the left as you are looking at the HQ. The direct SLURL to The AZIRE Learning Center is: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Madhupak/153/88/60
