Second Life is an online virtual world platform where users can socialize, connect and create virtual content and experiences. It is used widely in education where educators have created over 40 islands for libraries, universities and other educational institutions and groups. Some examples of educational institutions with a presence in Second Life include Stanford University Libraries, UCLA Library, and the University of Illinois. Educational uses allow students to engage through interactive activities and experiences in an environment popular with digital natives.
