OpenSimulator: School Quick Start Guide | Digital Learning World. They said it couldn’t get done…they said it wouldn’t get done…it [darn] near didn’t get done! Yet here it is, the “OpenSimulator: School Quick Start Guide,” a “one stop shop” for teachers wanting to get their schools started with 3D virtual worlds.

It includes an overview, step-by-step setup directions and even sample lesson plans for OpenSimulator (aka OpenSim). Covers Second Life too! For a couple of years now, I’ve been talking with a wide range of people…the geeks at ReactionGrid…fellow instructors at international and other schools…colleagues met via conferences and meetings, in Real and Second Life…about what’s holding 3D virtual worlds back in education.

Co-teacher Alex Makosz and I will make the big announcement re: the e-book at the upcoming AACE ED-MEDIA Conference in Lisbon. You can get your copy from Scribd. OpenSim Tutorials. Groups | OpenSim Creations. S OpenSimulator blog | OSgrid - OpenSimulator Metaverse. Second Places | OpenSimulator-in-a-Box. If you have seen Second Life and seen OpenSimulator and wish you could have a grid just for yourself, your company or even just your friends.

Then OpenSimulator-in-a-Box is just for you. Second Places will host, manage and update a Virtual Private Server that hosts the most recent internally tested OpenSimulator Platform with voice communications and Second Places OpenSimulator Manager. This solution can see you operating a fully operational, internet accessible OpenSimulator Platform. The OpenSimulator Manager will allow you to create, modify and remove people who access your OpenSimulator meaning you have complete access control on who can gain access to your world and you know exactly who they are. In addition the OpenSimulator Manager will provide an access portal for users to login to OpenSimulator, you to make announcements to your user base as well as for users to self manage their accounts.

Each virtual world starts with just one island but more islands can be added at any time. Knowclue - Machinima Through Multiple Lenses. Minecraft In School - Student Work. Machinima.
