What ive learned this semester?

This being my first semester of College, I have learned a great many things. I have learned in this class many things about the virtual world around me and how it relates to the real world. I have learned how many important buisnesses use this world for money makeing reasons and how they improve the lifestyle of employes via online worlds. I have learned how many online games are not just games, but rather foundations for players creativity. Many examples of this come from Second Life. I have also learned how many of the real world elements are still true in virtual worlds. I have learned that leardership can be a part of a online group of people just like in everyday life. Most importantly, I learned that online worlds can be a great source of friends and socialization.
