The document discusses the experiences of a group of students using Second Life for the first time. It provides both positives and negatives of their experience. They found the orientation island somewhat helpful but difficult to complete all tasks. Working as a cyber team on Second Life presented challenges in coordinating schedules. Some examples of effectively run simulations observed included a jazz club, CNN hub, weather island, and virtual bank. Visiting these simulations helped the group better understand the potential of virtual worlds.
