Learning English can be fun!
Why should we care?
Because it's the future!
Let me paint a picture.
Real Life
Eikaiwa. Genki gaijin teacher (sometimes) turning tricks to entertain you because he or she really doesn't know what else to do to get a reaction off the student's face. Whiteboard. Off white walls. Fluorescent lighting. Uncomfortable chairs. A textbook. A notebook. A dictionary (electronic hopefully...I REALLY feel sorry for those who think a chug-a-dic is still OK). And a pencil case with no fewer than 15 pens and pencils.
Second Life
Um. Have you seen any of the videos. Just do a search for English Village on You Tube or scroll down or up to see one. Oh hey, why don't you come over to English Village and let me show you. Bring your friends and I might even teach a class for FREE!
PS: I'm looking for research grants. Put your school on the leading edge. Contact Mike McKay aka Professor Merryman sponsorship information.

SL Kobe - Second Life Group
Here is a flyer that is going around Kobe in hopes of starting a group about using Second Life. I'm hoping this will spread the word about the use of social networking and virtual worlds in education in Japan.
If you are interested in attending a meeting, add a comment, or email me at mike[at]professormerryman.com. Hope to see you at the next meeting.
