elrc1

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. Annamaria Carusi, et.al.: elrc1 September 6, 2005

Blog created by the authors of this Alt-C presentation (Productive disagreement: pluralism in e-learning research) used not only to support the session but also to help the members of the group bounce ideas back and forth. Useful, because the presentation presented contrasting points of view, in a way, and the blog is a way of drawing them out. More...

Alt-I-Lab 2005 Demonstrators

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. Sam Easterby-Smith: Alt-I-Lab 2005 Demonstrators, CETIS September 2, 2005

Scott Leslie summarizes: "While this writeup does put some more meat on the bone and help us understand more about Learning Design, Tools Interoperability Profile and repository interoperability, I can't help but think that recording some of these sessions (and maybe some screen recorded demos too) would be helpful for spreading the word and illustrating the concepts to a wider audience".

The Real TAFE Homepage

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. Leigh Blackall: The Real TAFE Homepage, Teach and Learn Online September 2, 2005

Leigh Blackall has a happy discovery while giving a presentation at TAFE NSW Illawarra. "I came across the usual things that make TAFE a bit of a joke... access denials, not being set up to play MPEG4 movies, and other stuff I can't really recall just now, but then the joke turned on me! It was when I was up to the bit about wikis - using wikipedia, wikiversity, and the South African Curriculum wiki as examples". More...

Best of OLDaily, Stephen's Web

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. Stephen Downes: Best of OLDaily, Stephen's Web September 2, 2005

Welcome to the weekly readers, who have missed out on the great move to the new system. Today I flex it a bit, beginning with this page, which lists the most popular ten links from the last week. You'll also see the beginnings of my rating system, not fully operational (use the 'Back' button after you vote) but generally functional. Also, if you mouse over the author's name and the publication, you'll notice that they, too, are links to pages featuring links from those respective sources. This is still just the beginning of the new functionality - what we went through this week was much more than a design change. I'll update the code listings before I leave for Britain on Sunday (but again, this is still very much a work in progress). I arrive in Manchester Monday afternoon; I might do a newsletter but don't count on one until Tuesday. Meanwhile, I'll see some of you at the Edu-Bloggers Meetup Tuesday evening. [Comment]. More...

A Tale of Technology & Two Organizations: CNN vs Education

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. Alan Levine: A Tale of Technology & Two Organizations: CNN vs Education, Cogdogblog September 5, 2005

I have talked about the similarities between news media and learning for some time now, and so it's not surprising to see Elliot Masie seize on a hot topic and use CNN's coverage of recent events to make some similar points. But I like even better Alan Levine's summary of online media versus online learning - the contrast describes in stark relief the direction in which learning ought to - and will -go in the future.

ALT-C 2005: Exploring the Frontiers of E-learning

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. Various authors: Various Authors: ALT-C 2005: Exploring the Frontiers of E-learning July 11, 2005

So I made it to Manchester, UK, and after spending part of this afternoon trapped in an elevator, made it to the conference site with enough time to write a brief newsletter. Yes, it has been that sort of day. More...
