If you could build into second life how to behave when people aren't being specific it would really help. It's irritating when people give answers like "something sensible" when you've asked them a question. Whats "something sensible" supposed to mean FFS!?

It depends on how the method will be perceived. There are various ways to implement it.

This is the personal blog of Milton Broome, the digital avatar of University of Derby Lecturer in Psychology Simon Bignell. The avatar is a proxy for Psychology teaching and research in 3D multi-user virtual environments.

I teach a range of Psychology modules both to campus-based and distance learners. These include my final-year course 'Autism, Asperger's and ADHD' and a range of modules across Developmental and Cognitive Psychology.
