Abstract: This paper examines an innovative and dynamic example of an Advance Organizer inside of the immersive virtual space of Second Life. The Advance Organizer is in use at a self-paced, dynamic, and somewhat open virtual learning environment where collaborative teaching and studio style learning are commonplace. The Advance Organizer is considered in light of prominent learning theories and an interview with the school founder and designer of the AO is discussed.
