Thanks to Doug Latrell for hosting a tour group today to visit the facilities at NETg Campus.

We learned a bit about NETg’s offerings, and got to see two of their learning facilities- a large open facility where individual seats offer different audio/video streams of content, and a Microsoft Classroom where certification classses are taught.

One of the coolest things we saw and stodd on, was a new project that is partially done– a simulation of an oil rig, that has smoke, for people to learn about fire and rescue procedures.

See the whole slide show of our photos and the transcript from the chat conversation.

It’s a lot of work Doug has done, being self-taught in SL contstruction, and working a lot on his own time.

this was a great activity, so who wants to host the next field trip?
