Th07 Using Second Life to Road Test 'Tech Space Planning'

  • Session Description (from conference site)

    Seth Merriam , Alicia K. Russell

    The Northeastern University Educational Technology Center has worked with university architects and academic partners to design space that will combine the EdTech Center and Teaching Center. To test the design, the team “built” the space (including furnishings) to scale in Second Life, and invited NU colleagues and others to visit and assess. Based on feedback and NU staff/faculty experiences using the virtual space, planners made substantial changes to the design. Come “walk through” the multiple virtual iterations of the space, and find out how using SL revolutionized the development process.
