This presentation will briefly introduce the virtual world, Second Life (SL), and indicate its value for Inquiry Based Learning (IBL). The paper describes a CILASS initiative, in which 1st year BSc Information Management students inquired into SL residents' information behaviour and will include feedback from the students and the personal reflections of the course leader and a librarian supporting students in SL. Other educational uses of SL for IBL will also be discussed. Outcomes: to explore the value of using Second Life to deliver IBL; to discuss the practicalities of using Second Life with students.

Notes de l'éditeur
- Sheila Webber works in Department of Information Studies, I work in the Library. We have been collaborating on this project over the last year. Sheila is in Australia so I am presenting on behalf of us both. This is the first session of 2. We are also offering a workshop where delegates with an avatar can go in world and participate in a discussion around the possibilities for Inquiry Based Learning (IBL) using SL, others can attend the f2f workshop, view the discussion and post questions through the facilitator. More information is available in the pack. Before I start, just to give me an idea of your existing knowledge about Second Life, can I have a show of hands for how many people have heard of it; keep your hand up if you have got an avatar and have previously logged on and now keep your hand up if you use it regularly. Maggie Kohime (me in Second Life) was born on 26th April 2007. When registering your avatar you have to pick from a list of available surnames but can choose any first name you like such as Dragonslayer, Intellagirl, or standard names such as Maggie, so long as it has not already been used. Sheila is Sheila Yoshikawa. The first decision you need to make therefore is whether to be anonymous in Second Life or to try to indicate through your name who you are.
