In May of 2007, an avatar contest was held on Global Kids island in Teen Second Life. James Paul Gee, the noted professor, came to Global Kids to try on the various avatars- such as a chicken, a cyberninja and a dragon -- while reflecting on a variety of issues related to games, learning, avatars and online identity.

This segment is called:

"With Second Life, we all come in here having a second chance to have an identity that isn't just the one we have in the real world, we can change things... In a way, we're able to transcend our real world..."
