Willis, H. (2008) Infrastructures in Virtual Learning New Media Consortium 2008 conference proceedings
This is one of the most interesting papers I have read on Second Life. It takes a theoretical perspective on virtual reality and uses that to adapt a pedagogical approach to several projects developed by the Institute of Multimedia Literacy at the University of Southern California. Essential reading for anyone who wants to break away from the replication of the traditional classroom model in Second Life.
