eLearning For Teachers: Di Goodman (Epoff)

Learning Technologies 2008 Conference

Friday 7th November

Toward a Learning Utility

Mark Keough’s workshop:

He asks us to drop the e from eLearning!

“The future is never designed from the past”, where technology is concerned.

He offers us a model for growth rather than control, that shifts emphasis from institutions to communities. It is a Learning Relationship Management model. See his blog for details:

Things to contemplate for the future:

1. Mikeseyfang: intellectual property

2. rss: the value of this

3. iPhone and iTunes and the direction this technology is taking us!

4. Self publishing as a lifestyle: through blogs, wikis, social networking sites etc

5. Identity and authentication: who are we?

Thought provoking stuff!
