Welcome to the SLED Project! Presented by: Cheryl Comstock (a. k. a. Ize) Dedicated in honor of Rick Hadley (a. k. a. RADEd) CCCOnline, Telecoop 2007
Forward I want to thank the Rick Hadley’s family for allowing me to continue my research and present the SLED Project at the 2007 Telecoop conference. As with Second Life, Rick was extremely passionate about using technology and enjoyed working with educators and students in online education. The SLED project is really about the endless possibilities of the social connection between the people and technology in the classroom. Cheryl Comstock, 2007
Mission The SLED (Second Life EDucation) Project website is intended to provide educators with additional information about how to incorporate Second Life (SL) as a virtual teaching tool into 21 st century classrooms. Enabling educational activities to be delivered to the learner in their own space and learning environments. Educational news, tutorials and profiles of people & places in Second Life (SL) will be provided. This project is about Students, Faculty and Education, and how we as educators can bring them together for a better socially engaged learning experience Visit: http: //rickhadley. com/sled/

Our content should come to them in their own space”. space George Siemens, 2007 From: Scholarship in an age of participation, e.
