Is Second Life a Viable Teaching Tool?
|
| |
 Second Life is a 3-D virtual world entirely built and owned by its “residents,” who create avatars representing themselves. Since opening to the public in 2003, it has grown explosively and today is inhabited by almost 10 million users from around the globe. The users are a mixed bunch of techheads, gamers and academics. Much skepticism abounds about the veracity and functionality of Second Life, but educators are said to love it for teaching purposes. Know anyone who is using Second Life as an e-learning tool?

Strategic Leadership Development Makes the Difference
|
|
|
 According to a study by Bersin & Associates, 53 percent of surveyed organizations now face leadership shortages, most of which are at the mid-management and director level.
The study notes that the biggest business drivers for leadership development programs are to increase the pool of internal leadership candidates (44%), to reduce gaps in leadership skills (42%), and to grow leaders more quickly (35%).
Study findings will be presented at an upcoming Bersin & Associates briefing in New York City on November 28th.

Legislation Against 'Trolls' Protects Learning Companies
|
| |
 “Trolls” are companies that have created or purchased patents without creating any new inventions or systems, for the purpose of suing companies ... and forcing a settlement rather than risk high costs of litigations or settlements.
In January of this year, the courts made it harder for trolls to wage licensing campaigns. Before, trolls could send letters to targeted companies, putting them on notice -- and putting them at risk of being found "willful" infringers facing triple damages. Companies that wanted to remove that potential liability, however, could not themselves file suit to get a court to declare that they were not liable. Now, according to MedImmune v. Genentech, as interpreted by the Federal Circuit, a company receiving a letter referencing its activities and offering a patent license may file a lawsuit where it resides.
