Hi all,

I am Shaowen Bardzell, a faculty member at Indiana University. A colleague
and I are currently conducting a research project (we just got the HSC
approval yesterday) to study collaborative design teams in SL. I am writing
(a) to determine if anyone on this forum is collaborating on any builds or
other designs in Second Life and might be interested in participating and
(b) to encourage you to feel free to pass this message onto anyone whom you
think might be interested.

The official recruitment text follows:

* * * * * * *

You are invited to participate in a research study. The purpose of this
study is to understand and evaluate collaborative design practices in Second
Life and examine how video game technologies contribute to emergent playful
behaviors and innovative design practices.

Study #06-11606

* * * * * * *

If you are interested or have any questions, please contact me offline at
[email]selu@indiana.edu[/email].

Thanks, and Happy Holidays!

Shaowen
