 Second Life in ESL/EFL Bibliography
The following was prepared in preparation for a discussion at TESOL 2009,
called "Technology as aid, crutch, and impediment,"
held on Mar. 27, 2009 at 4:00 PM, in the Colorado Convention Center Rm. 712. It
was a Discussion (#142376) for the Second Language Writing Interest Section. My partner for
this discussion was Elisa Hunt.
BTW I know very little about using Second Life in an esl/efl
educational setting; I only know that the world has changed, and isn't
going back. This bibliography will be updated as time permits - Thomas
