In 1994 I started a project called Aggiornamento, literally meaning "bringing up to date," It also embodies a spirit of change,openness,open-mindedness and modernity.The purpose of the project was to describe the opportunities of the World Wide Web for education. This blog informed you on my experiences as an observant participator in Second Life. Since I ve finished my report on SL I have decided to continue on writing about educational initiatives that inspire me.

Fontys 240/242/70
Fontys, a Dutch College for Higher Education has developed an island in SL. They have created a pleasant atmosphere and some interesting educational experiments. Nine of their schools have some presence on the island and all occupy students in in-world tasks related to their curriculum. The presence of a Nabaztag in the educational centre facilitates contact with real life which is, in any way, intriging enough for further research!!
