[Air-l] use of second life in higher education?

[Charles Ess]

A colleague is starting to examine possible uses of Second Life in higher
education.  A quick scan of the AoIR mail archive didn't turn up anything
specific (though perhaps I missed something ...)
so... references and/or other suggestions for some initial reading in this
area?

many thanks in advance,
