Major strengths of this video are video snippets from Second Life with references to actual islands on Second Life that the viewer can later visit. It also mentions Sloodle (combination of SL and Moodle) which some instructors might find helpful. Very attractively done, with music in the background, and video snippets from Second Life while the narrator talks about potential of SL as an educational tool.
