Not SL exactly, but another MUVE World of Warcraft used in language learning: http://www.gamasutra.com/php-bin/news_index.php?story=13341 - quotes: "All my students were getting up at three o'clock in the morning, putting on their headsets and chatting with these 12 year-olds in China. The Chinese kids were berserk about it. The teachers were saying it was their favorite class. It was really a win/win thing. ... Some of them were really starting to sound like Americans. A lot of time it was more a confidence thing than a language thing. Also, they're getting conversational English they wouldn't get in a normal class, more authentic English, with phrases they wouldn't get in textbooks."
