I am Dr. Acosta and I have been on Second Life since 2008. I have primarily used Second Life socially until now. I have run a book club on Second Life since 2009 and recently that group got a movie club branch as well. I used to own a residential and commercial sim with three of my SL friends and have experience managing land on Second Life. I have recently started using Second Life academically, and I am very excited about its potential for education and research. I now co-run a Virtual Spanish Conversation Club with Dr. Ocasio and Dr. Bell.
