Scientific paper

University of Arizona undergraduate students in a non-science major introductory astrobiology course have been collaborating in the 3-dimensional multi-user virtual world called Second Life. Semester end "Creative Projects” involve designing and building small exhibits that fit into our "History of the Earth and Life on Earth Timeline” that sits on LivingintheUniverse Island.
The large timeline is spiral shaped in navigation and covers 4.6 billion years ago to the present. Animated models, informational Notecards, and immersive experience boxes help to amaze and educate SL residents about their home planet and the specialness of life on Earth.
Successes and lessons learned over the past 2 semesters will be outlined and a 'quick start guide' to getting involved in SL will be available as a handout.
