Pure euphoria was felt around the globe as the results of the 2008 Presidential elections were announced. History was made tonight while tears of joy were collectively shed by everyone.
Xavier and I joined friends at several places to wish for the best outcome... and we got it! We hung out at rowdy noize club DeRailed and never left there... DJ DaemonChadeau has a way of grabbing you by the throat in a non-stop industrial noize assault.
DeRailed was the perfect place for the American spirit. Our country was born from rebels... noisy loud rebels who refused to bend to the mother country.
The party was intense as American avies and Europeans joined together to root for change.
Earlier, I went to see old friends at Divaz and hung out there to see a rare set by DJxHalloween, the best dj on the grid. Many there were speaking about the politics and all were hoping for a Obama victory.
I got a tp from DJ Zap Hax over at R.A.R.E. and he was doing an impromptu party celebrating the election day madness. Zap never fails to create the perfect sets, and it was so grand to be there with the Europeans.
I was exhausted from a lack of sleep and excitement, so Xavi and I headed to the beach to relax for a while. We reflected on American politics, the monumental task that faces Obama, and the almost forgotten war.
We both hope that people from all affiliations will come together to work for a better and stronger America. God bless us and let us all hope for a better future for our family, friends and country. Yes, we can! Peace and Love to all!

There's a vision in the sands

Our students Chantelle and Nisreen at the Master of Arts in Digital Technologies for Language Teaching collaboratively reflect on their experience on doing activities on an online Virtual World. Read their thoughts:
When we entered Small worlds, we had a lot of questions about its nature and application as an educational tool in language classrooms. In the beginning we were confused with the so many avatars appearing and disappearing, and then we got engaged creating our own avatars. Our 3D lifelike avatars were reflecting our own identities, their looks, style; even the nicknames were very similar to us in real world.
During the session, we were thinking about our students all the time, about the affordances and shortcomings of Small Worlds. We started realizing how the anonymity related to avatars could really help reluctant students to reduce their language related anxiety. Although there is no opportunity for expressing emotions and reactions properly, yet there is some sense of real immersion and tempting engagement in these worlds. Moreover, Small Worlds can be effective in creating a community of people sharing ideas collaboratively. As for us as students in Small Worlds, we were relaxed, happy, and most importantly did not feel the time. It was so real and engaging!

This is the table and chairs used at the SLED (Second Life Educators) discussion on virtual worlds. As people arrived, more chairs would automatically form so there was always one empty chair for the next person. Very cool, though the group became kind of large for that table. Oh, and great discussion!
