Here are just a few points about this site:

– This is our site to use for communication and posting testimonials. We will have a student page here for sharing photos and blog postings about their activities here. Do feel free to register and begin using it. See the Retail Sales & Service Blog page as an example of SL photos.

– If you haven’t done so, be sure and check out the Preview Second Life page for just a few ways it is being used in education.

– Look for my contact information on the Contact Us page to schedule an orientation. After the orientation, there is a Review Second Life page with menu    prompts.

Best and happiest of July 4th weekends.
