"It's tough to teach a college class when your students are constantly flying around the room.
Just ask any professor who has opened a classroom in the online world of Second Life."
Brian, Allison, is this true?
That quote is from an article about a Second Life island, set up for instruction on teaching in Second Life, that is in development by Georgia University.

it is a little tough! I actually just talked about that in a seminar with some faculty...it's hard to take people into an environment built for exploring, and not expect things to be a little un-focused.
A friend of mine is reading this book, and it sounds really good.
There's actually a Second Life For Dummies book out http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Second-Life-For-Dummies/Sarah-Robbins/e/9780470180259/?itm=1
