SL project wins annual e-Learning award

5 Nov

Yesterday, November 4th 2009, The Danish Ministry of Education together with National Knowledge Center on e-Learning announced the winner of the annual e-Learning award. The winner is the VIA University College who have developed a sim for training work place security targeted at professionals in especially the carpentry industry. Big Congrats!

Given the negative press surrounding Second Life this truly is good news for all Danish in-world educators/researches :-)
