@Seren, someone HAS used the X-box Kinect sensor to convert their
body position to their avatar position real time for teaching in Second
Life. X-Box is not required apparently, just the Kinect.

Google Search on: Kinect and Second Life, or Kinect and OpenSim for
more references!

There are two things that would make be ecstatic for teaching,
meetings and presenting in opensim:
1) direct drive animation of my avatar as I present from my real world
movements or very very good presenter animation stacks
2) something from webmeeting space which is to show any app window I
wish live on a screen/prim in opensim. We aren't quite there yet
with MOAP although it is a great beginning.

For many educational uses adapting and changing objects is
not needed.
I respectfully beg to differ. This is the core of the my research
efforts. A learning environment needs to provide user level
tailorability from the core. The fact that it is not available
does not mean that it is not needed. I cannot count how many
times, subject matter experts felt that their teaching is being
canned by the environment, or that students find their expression
(through actions) limited. This is the result of extensive
evaluation on the ground, both from an ethnographic evaluation
perspective and for a user level evaluation perspective. I hope
to publish these findings soon (well after I get some time away
from writing grant proposals or doing actual building work)
