I'm new to SL and am just now trying to figure it all out. Any comments/suggestions about how to get started would be greatly appreciated. I teach preservice English language teachers in Mexico and have had some success implementing language exchanges with learners in the US via Skype. But I'm curious to see whether SL is suitable for this group of English language learners as well.

I have so many posts in Draft mode right now it is not funny...maybe you have inspired me to get cracking!) A question: when you say you were teaching language educators from all over the world...was this a F2F class? Was this entirely in SL? Or was it a mixture of both? If it was all in SL...how did you meet up with them there? Inquiring minds (and fellow authors) want to know!
