February brought snow to Real Life and exciting additions to VLTCC...
The first week of February was an exciting week at the Virtual Laboratory Training and Career Center (VLTCC)! The VLTCC Landing Plaza received a scheduled facelift with some scripting "pains". The new look was worth every "groan". A teleport VLTCC Destination Directory Board was added to the Landing Plaza to enhance the VLTCC experience of its visitors and training participants. Here, visitors and training participants can select the desired destination and teleport to it or any of the twenty (20) VLTCC destinations. Now, visitors have the option to use the VLTCC Destination Directory Board, or use the original networked teleport (telepads) system. The VLTCC Portal was added for any visitor who may land at the Opensim default 128, 128, x location. From the VLTCC Portal, visitors and training participants can teleport automatically to the VLTCC Landing Plaza, then teleport to any of the VLTCC destinations.

You are invited to teleport into Kitely, locate "Virtual Laboratory Training and " (Map), and teleport to a "VLTCC experience"...

Now Regular Office Hours at the Virtual Laboratory Training and Career Center (VLTCC)
The first week of February was an exciting week at the Virtual Laboratory Training and Career Center (VLTCC)! As the snow was falling in Maryland, I was preparing for my first day of virtual office hours. I am pleased to announce that Monday, February 1, 2021 was the first day for regular office hours in my 3D virtual laboratory in Kitely. This was indeed an exciting “What’s Next” for my vision to integrate real (physical) life into 3D immersive virtual worlds. Although I have been interacting within the 3D immersive virtual worlds community since 2008, the COVID-19 pandemic and social distancing fueled the decision to establish regular virtual office and lab hours with the in-world assistance of my 3D avatar, “Sally Cherry”. Now colleagues, friends, and anyone interested in 3D immersive virtual worlds can visit for informal chats; technical discussions; virtual meet-ups; training sessions; and to learn more about my vision, "Real to Virtual; Virtual to Real". Snow, ice and physical distancing are indeed Not issues in the 3D virtual world community.

My first day of regular office hours was an information-sharing and “coaching” experience. I was delighted that Ilan Tochner, CEO and Co-Founder of Kitely stopped at VLTCC to discuss some technical issues. The technical information that he provided will definitely enhance the in-world experience of an VLTCC visitor. Thus, helping me to keep the VLTC Project moving forward. Speaking of visitors, I am "over the moon" thrilled that a real life public health colleague and friend, Dr. Jasmine Ward, CEO and Founder of Black Ladies in Public Health (BLiPH) was one of my first visitors. Dr. Ward logged in for the very first time to start her 3D virtual experience. It was a delight to introduce and welcome Dr. Ward to the innovative community of Kitely. Upon her “smooth” arrival, the Kitely Community Center was her first stop to get acquainted with navigating and interacting within the 3D immersive virtual world community.

The next stop was my most recent 3D immersive virtual building project which highlights real life “United Memories (UM)”, a digital COVID-19 memorial. Dr. Jasmine Ward conceived the idea to create and share a digital memorial of reverence dedicated to the Black community experiencing and looking back on the COVID19 pandemic. She recognized the urgent need for an innovative way to gather, grieve, and honor these Black lives lost due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States. You are invited to learn more about my 3D immersive virtual world building project in the blog post and photo album entitled “3D Immersive Virtual Reflections of a Digital COVID-19 Memorial… The Real to Virtual; Virtual to Real integration of "United Memories".

The excitement did not stop there! The first week of virtual office (and lab) hours started the real life and in-world planning for the launch of monthly Virtual Health Meet-Ups and Medical Laboratory Professional Week 2021 at VLTCC. While it goes without saying that my “first week of regular office hours was a learning, skill building, and planning experience, I am going to say it anyway… It was a very “good” week at the 3D Virtual Laboratory Training and Career Center (VLTCC)

Announcing the VLTCC Opening of... "3D Virtual Reflections of a Digital COVID-19 Memorial".
You are invited to visit the latest Real to Virtual; Virtual to Real integration project within the Virtual Laboratory Training and Career center (VLTCC) in Kitely... "3D Virtual Reflections of a Digital COVID-19 Memorial”. The 3D immersive virtual world project was created to share information about real life United Memories, a digital COVID-19 memorial honoring Black lives lost to COVID-19 in the United States. The real life COVID-19 memorial was created by the Founder and CEO of Black Ladies in Public Health, Dr. Jasmine Ward with other dynamic Black women from across the country who also serve as leaders in public health. Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, these women have been investing their time, talents and treasures to organize and mobilize the community in a collaborative effort to develop United Memories. The real life United Memories website was launched to bring the names, faces and stories of the diverse community of Black people who lost their lives to COVID-19 in the United States to the forefront. It gives family members, friends, coworkers and colleagues an opportunity to share photos and stories of those lost to COVID19. The submission of related visual art, music, and poetry is encouraged. I applaud the vision, work and commitment of Dr. Ward and everyone involved especially the “Truth-Tellers” for pouring this cultural libation into the world as a ritual of recognition, honor, and remembrance.

The overall purpose of the 3D immersive virtual world building project was to share information about this powerful digital memorial. Throughout the building process, I found myself reflecting on the profound loss within the African-American community in the United States. The 3D immersive virtual world project serves as another way to grieve, reflect, and remember. It was an honor to build the "3D Immersive Virtual Reflections of a digital COVID-19 Memorial... United Memories" in remembrance of Black lives lost to the COVID-19 pandemic.

You are invited to browse the photo album for the 3D immersive virtual world building project entitled, “3D Virtual Reflections of a digital COVID-19 Memorial… the “Real to Virtual; Virtual to Real” integration of United Memories into a 3D Immersive Virtual World". You encouraged to visit the 3D immersive virtual world project located within VLTCC @ Kitely. To learn more about the real life United Memories, or submit information about a honoree; share uplifting artwork (or poetry) and/or know of resources to assist in the grieving process, visit the website at http://www.unitedmemories.com.
