From the Second Life Educators list:

The Boston Second Life MeetUp Group at Vox Populi during the evening of
7/12/07 was attended by about 45 people.  Attending were Blackboard
developers, Second Life developers, various Second Life personalities,
representatives from Blackboard Inc., several representatives from Linden
Labs, and Jeremy Kemp, representing the SLoodle (Moodle + Second Life)
project.

The day following, 7/13, was the Blackboard Developers Conference's
listening session on Virtual Worlds and Blackboard.  There has been much
discussion about the integrated use of Blackboard with Second Life,
combining online asyncronous and syncronous education.  There is rising a
development community for use of the Blackboard learning system with
Second Life.
