【Abstract】 Second Life is one of the most advanced of multiple-user virtual environments. It allows not only synchronous and asynchronous communication but also the dynamic changes of the virtual environment through user-driven building and shaping within the environment. Many educators have given attention to Second Life as an environment with significant potentials for teaching and learning. This review summarizes existing researches on the use of Second Life in teaching and learning from the perspectives of logic,discipline,theoretical explanation and problems in Second Life. The paper concludes by listing the innovative potentials of Second Life.更多还原
