General Information

Thank you for participating as a presenter in the 2010 UNC Teaching and Learning with Technology Conference. We are looking forward to to this year's conference, and we appreciate your contribution of knowledge and expertise.
 
Presenters may use their own Second Life are to present. If you are using your own area, please email us the slurl as soon as possible.

For those not using their own areas we are providing 4 presentation areas. You MUST be in the NC WeBIEE group, and have the group tag activated, to “rez” your presentation materials (place them) at the presentation location). If you are using our sandbox to practice rezzing, you will need the NC Education group active. If you are not in those groups, send an instant message to Lorraine Charron in Second Life, or email us. When you receive the group invitation as a message, please accept it. Only one of the people in your group needs to “rez” the presentation materials, but you will all need to be familiar with Second Life.

Practice, Practice, Practice!
