Sesame is the Open University students magazine.
Yes, it's the OU so it's aimed perhaps at slightly older people than you might want. But all the copies of the magazine are downloadable (often large!) pdfs.
You can find Sesame at the OU website.

Graduate in Second Life
Interesting use of Second Life - the online multi-user thingy.
Good distance learning stuff as well. And not the OU doing all the leading in this sort of thing...
And an interesting linked article from a couple of days ago: What happened to Second Life? Interesting study of what happens when the hype dies down. Maybe Second Life and co are just too dependent on access speeds and people finding them interesting - and maybe there aren't quite enough geeks to find everything interesting?

There's all sorts of good stuff here, mainly aiming at my Applied A Level classes.
