Welcome to our wiki!

 

This wiki was created for brainstorming for those involved in the pre-conference workshop on Second Life at the CALICO 2008 conference in San Francisco. 

 

Please post your ideas below about what you'd like to do in the workshop.  Keep in mind that we have 10 people involved and that the workshop is Wednesday, March 19, from 9:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. 

The acceptance does not say anything about a lunch break, but I assume we need to leave at least an hour (or two???).  So, that means our total workshop time would be a maximum of perhaps 6 hours.

 

In the space below please include your name and contact information, and then list your ideas for the workshop.

I have a scavenger hunt I'll be using with my students very soon that could accomplish all of these tasks.
 
 

Idea 2:  Building workshop:  In this section we would provide the participants with a folder containing some basic shapes and textures.  We would also show them how to create their own shapes, how to modify and move objects, link objects, and apply textures.  We could, for example, give them a shape to work from, like a simple house, and have them create their own version.  Alternatively, we could have them create something like a book with pages--there are explanations about how to make your own book already available in SL.

 

Idea 3:  Scripts:  For our more advance students a workshop in working with scripts might be very useful.  Personally, I am at the level of
