I joined the ISTE Second Life group back in month 3 of the program. I found ISTE useful when I was working on our group project of using virtual environments in an educational setting. ISTE provided me with the support to begin encouraging educators that it was ok to use a virtual environment to teach. They also provided encouraging meetings that involved all kinds of teachers around the world, which was great to attend. I enjoyed discussing virtual environments with other like-minded teachers that understood the virtual world and its possibilities.
ISTE offered many useful tools to help understanding virtual environments in an educational setting. I used ISTE for its videos on virtual environments, personal video blogs of other teachers, and as a meeting place for our group to explore a virtual environment, online collaboration, and networking.
