On the 27th March Princeton University in Second Life was full to capacity as musician enthusiasts gathered for a SpaceJunky Concert. Princeton University is using Second Life for a platform for teaching and researching. It is also an environment for
engaging learning as students can come into this Virtual World and be in a Virtual Class Room, engaging this cyber world and
collaborate activities for academics, giving these students a hands on approach.
With music and this Virtual Class room it connects everyone together with educational peers active in Second life and showcases in world projects and community. We saw that when music and academics came together for one magical concert, bridging the unity of how everyone interacts into another cosmic thread in the metaverse.
It made me think on Virtual Culture in the metaverse how it teaches students to navigate and engage themselves in the cyber
environment and virtual connections, and how the universities like Princeton can bridge and engage that.
I had a look round Princeton University and is a leader in showcasing experimental space for teaching, learning and
exploration.
Princeton University includes a confence area, museum of arts, performance and store information centre.
The NMC-The New Media Consortium owns the central core of the Island.
Everyone part of Princeton University were on hand to talk on the structure and demographics of Princeton and showcase there world at Princeton in Second Life.
Princeton occasionally run experiments in Second Life for students, researchers and post-doctorate scholars in various
disciplines of the social sciences. All research and experimentation is subject to strict guidelines for human research, and must be approved by an Institutional Review Panel before implementation.
A group called "Princeton Research Participants" gives notice of such experiments and shares findings from past research
projects. Some of the Alpha Crew took part in an experiment after the SpaceJunky performance. It gave the students a platform to interact with some diverse people from SpaceJunky Alpha Crew.
