If you’ve ever peeked at our NMC Campus Case Study, you know that the NMC Campus Project is at the core of the New Media Consortium’s presence in Second Life. Over the years we’ve grown from one sim to nearly 100; developing a multitude of projects, hosting many events, and creating public spaces along the way. While we are proud of this project and what it has allowed us to accomplish, it isn’t exactly why we use virtual world’s platforms in the first place. Putting it simply: the NMC is a community.
Flourishing underneath the canopy of the NMC Campus story there is an entire ecosystem of even more narratives unfolding every day on the NMC Campus- these are Your NMC Campus Stories. Each day the NMC Campus is home to a wide range of events, university classes, art installations, explorations, discoveries and many more types of innovation, learning, and creativity.
“Your NMC Campus Story” will be a regular feature on this blog that captures a small snapshot of the work our community does, a taste of the learning experiences occurring here, and a window into virtual worlds through the scope of our community’s efforts. Share your story by emailing beth@nmc.org.
