Chronicle Article

Here's the article on my work with Second Life from the Chronicle of Higher Education - it's a pay-newspaper, so this link is only good for 5 days, but enjoy :) I'm not actually mentioned until about halfway down...

If you need more info on my work with Second Life, check out my Metaverse web sites - this is where I put all my cyberculture-teaching stuff.

Games for Health

I'm not a health-care researcher, but I thought this sounded fun:

"The Second Annual Games for Health Conference will take place
September 22-23, 2005 in Baltimore, Maryland.

"This gathering of game developers, researchers, and healthcare experts
will spend two-days discussing applications of games, and game
technologies to a variety of healthcare fields.

"Applications for training, direct patient care, and rehabilitation
will be shown. Also on display will be health education, policy, and
management initiatives utilizing game technologies."
