Interesting article on SL

I have been working on the proposal I have to submit tomorrow (just finished--now accounting must review!) for what we're calling the "Virtual Oncology Practice". It's a simulation for physicians who treat patients with lung cancer. I have been researching the use of simulation in under and grad-medical education so I can talk about it in the proposal slightly knowledgeably. Anyway, in my travels I found this article on Second Life in education.

The authors state that "The purpose of this study was to assess the value of Second Life among post-secondary instructors with experience using Second Life as an educational tool."

Just thought I'd pass along:
