A Grab Bag of Teaching Tools
a) Powerpoint Presenter (Single and Triple Screen)
Take the presenter out of your Inventory and place it on the ground. In order to add your
own images, you must first upload them from your hard drive. If using Powerpoint, do
File - Save As (in Powerpoint) and then change the file type to jpgs and export each slide.
It is a good idea to resize them to 512 pixels before uploading them. Now in Second Life
click on File -> Bulk Upload, select the images on your hard drive and upload them. This
will cost L$10 per image and they will end up in your Inventory in a folder called
'Textures'. Now right click on each image and set full permissions (Allow anyone to copy,
Next owner can modify, copy). It is important to do this before loading them into the
presenter. When this is done, right-click the presenter, choose Edit and then move to the
Content tab. Click and hold one of the images from your Inventory, drag it and drop it in
the Powerpoint presenter Content tab. Repeat until all your images are in the presenter,
then exit Edit mode. Click the presenter laptop keyboard for a display menu of all the
images available
b) SpeakEasy HUD
This is used to automatically read out pre-prepared lines of text from a notecard. A handy
gadget if you often need to say the same things, or you are not a quick (or accurate) typist.
Find the SpeakEasy HUD in your Inventory, right-click it and choose Wear. The HUD
(Heads Up Display) will appear in the top left-hand corner of your screen as a small blue
rectangle. HUDs are only visible to the people wearing them. Right-click on the HUD and
choose Edit, then select the Content tab. In there you will find a notecard called
'speakme'. This is where you put the text you want to deliver (no more than 255
characters per line). Type your text and save the notecard - the HUD will reset itself. Now
left-click on the HUD to speak the first line in public chat - each time you do so, a new
line will be read from the notecard.
c) Question Ball
Drag the Question Ball from your Inventory to the ground. Right-click it to edit, and
choose the Content tab. Double-click the 'questions' notepad to change the questions.
Note that questions must be short, with two or more possible answers separated by a |.
Save the notecard and exit Edit mode - the ball will reset and ask for your email address,
so that it can send the answers to you when someonetakes a questionnaire. Type your
email address in chat and press enter - confirm by clicking on the 'yes' button that
appears. The ball should now be ready for learners to use.
d) Notecard Dropbox
The Notecard Dropbox will accept assignments in the form of notecards from your
learners. Just drag the Dropbox out of Inventory to the ground. Yourlearners can then
write assignments as notecards, and drag them from their inventories and drop them into
the box. To retrieve the assignments, simply Edit the box, choose the Content tab and
drag the notecards to your own Inventory.
2. e) Menu Web Browser

Inventory to the floor and edit the 'urls' notecard. Exit Edit mode to reset the browser,
