Regular SL covers 18+ So it isn't everyone lumped together all at once. Still, EC and primary students are almost certainly better off with tailored and targeted materials. Things that are going to catch their interest. Interest in SL seems to be loosely coupled with age, and under 25 users barely spend any time with it. The 13-17 age-group users spend the least mean time per user. I'm not sure actually, whether the average SL educator views that as a good or a bad thing. (Hit enter too soon)

I found it quite intriguing. I don’t think I would use either of these tools in the classroom as there are other more effective tools which allow students to collaborate and communicate in a safer environment.
