Virtual Worlds Best Practices in Education 2012 From March 15th to March 17, 2012 - the education community of Second Life, OpenSim, and other virtual worlds will be hosting a 3 day conference on best practices in education. This conference will promote the best and brightest from the Virtual World's education community in various fields of practice including everything from demonstrations to hands on theory. The conference is a free event for educators and researchers of virtual worlds, knowledge emergence, knowledge development, and their educational impacts. Last year we had over 2400 attendees (700+ pre-registrations) and over 250 speakers from around the world. By registering for this event you are helping us to plan out resources to ensure the conference runs smoothly and that we have allocated enough space to ensure everyone gets an opportunity to participate.
