Three Very Successful SJ Sessions at TLT Conference

Educators had the opportuity to attend any of three sessions about Star Journey at the "Teaching and Learning with Technology" Conference held last week in Second Life, organized by University of North Carolina–Pembroke. Guests gathered in a special meeting area, a platform floating above the center of Star Journey island. In every direction, one could look out and see Gardens, Seas, and interactive Symbols that populate the island.

Co-presenting were Dr. Sonya Hardin, associate nursing professor at UNC, and Richard Geer, Star Journey author and developer. Attendees got a first-hand experience of this tool for self reflection. A volunteer from the audience solved a real life problem, through a guided process led by Richard.

Sonya Hardin shared experiences of her graduate nursing students who attended Star Journey sessions for credit. She read excerpts from several student papers which were quite moving. It was clear that Star Journey had added to their own personal growth and as well as better preparing them to care for others.

Out of some 30 presentors from organizations around the world, only Star Journey was asked to present three sessions, one each day.
