It was a team effort, about a dozen people worked on the logistics, but it went off largely without a hitch. Great fun, and great promotion of distance learning!

This event was last Wednesday night and was organized by MacArthur:

Here is the rebroadcast:

The implications of virtual worlds in education are all here, explained, explored. Really great.
