Ilhas IEEE no Second Life
Second Life pode ser usado para uma variedade de fins. Exemplos:
Reuniões - IEEE ilha tem vários locais especificamente projetados para encontros de
todos os tamanhos.
Palestras, apresentações, eventos - IEEE Island tem vários locais onde os
grupos podem realizar eventos como festas, performances ao vivo e eventos
Visualização de dados 3D - dados complexos poderia ser melhor renderizados em
3D. Um avatar pode literalmente caminhar por uma representação de dados, percebendo as
inter-relações e padrões que seriam opaco em uma representação 2D. Second Life oferece
um ambiente relativamente simples, flexível, em que a experiência ao longo destas linhas.

Student Transition and Elevation
Partnership (STEP)
Making the transition from Student Member to Young
Professional is often fraught with anxiety because of changes
in location (moving to a first job or a new home) and changes
in independence! The network of IEEE members found within
local sections is key to helping make the transition a successful
one.

Conducting a STEP Event…
 The goal of this program is to provide a standardized yet localized
program for facilitating the transition from Student Member to
Young Professional, by introducing the opportunities and benefits
of IEEE membership during the onset of a career. Some key
elements for a successful transition:
1. Connect with local Student Branches and the local Section
Affinity Group to add to the level of networking for the
graduates.
2. Invite alumni of the Student Branch and IEEE Higher
Grade Members to speak!
