Abstract

In this study I propose to investigate how 3D virtual worlds can contribute to student art learning through a group of art teachers reflections on their Second Life (SL) learning experiences. Specifically, I am looking for a comprehensive understanding of how participants as students and art instructors respond to this virtual learning environment and reflect on their learning process, in order to make recommendations for future research and practice.
