Een van de projecten die onderdeel uitmaken de Innovatieregeling 2011 van het SURFnet/Kennisnet Innovatie programma is van de Montessorischool JF Kennedy uit Den Haag. Ik heb ze vandaag gebruikt tijdens de Workshop Video op mobiele devices als voorbeeld van producerend leren met video op mobiele devices. Ik vind het een schitterend project en gelukkig hadden ze net afgelopen weekend een post […]

In Nederland zijn er nog niet zo heel veel onderwijsinstellingen die gebruik maken van iTunesU, maar wereldwijd zijn er al meer dan 1.000 universiteiten en hogescholen die video’s, PDF’s en nu ook EPUBs op deze manier beschikbaar stellen. Dat dat niet voor niets is blijkt wel uit de download cijfers. Afgelopen jaar waren er 300 miljoen downloads. De Open Universiteit in […]
http://youtu.be/rz_3X7OMa6I Het filmpje is al wat ouder (juni 2011), maar omdat het een technologie laat zien die vanzelfsprekend zou moeten zijn (en nog niet is) wil ik hem toch even laten zien. Wat je hier ziet is het gebruik van een digitaal schoolbord van Smart (een Smartboard dus). En in eerste instantie lijkt dat niet zo nieuw/vreemd. Het is al heel […]
It makes only sense that I spend my last post about ALT-C 2011 on the final keynote and final session of the conference. And, although I do understand some of the remarks I’ve heard about the keynote by John Naughton (how cool is it to have your own Wikipedia page?), I did enjoy it. Yes, it was scripted and he read […]
I’ll admit it: I did not know who Dónal FitzPatrick was when I decided to attend his session. I had read the title: “I Have a Blind Student in My Maths/Science Class, Should I panic? How to promote inclusion for blind students” and found that interesting enough to attend. So when he said that he wasn’t going to use slides during […]
It was a shame that only a small number of people had managed to find their way to the The Bragg Cluster for the session titled “Standards-based Assessment – Creating Innovative, Interesting, Interoperable Resources Using QTIv2.1” by Sue Milne, Niall Barr and Graham Smith. It may have been the great number of steps that you have to climb to get to […]
Dragos Ciobanu, Neil Morris and Alina Secara showed how at the University of Leeds, they are experimenting with Adobe Connect Pro. Here too, they luckily choose to just demonstrate instead of explain in words only. We had received the URL for their Adobe Connect room so anyone with a laptop, iPad, iPhone, Android device could participate during the session. Alina Secara […]
Simon Booth from the University of Stirling and Colin Dalziel from Pebble Learning gave an overview of the use of LTI as part of the ceLTIc project. LTI stands for Learning Tool Interoperability and is a mechanism with which it should be easier to connect different systems. For example, you have Moodle as your VLE and want to use PeddelPad. Through […]
In his presentation titled “The Distributed, Web 2.0 VLE? Incorporating External Content Platforms into the Institutional VLE”, Ian Glover from the City University London talked about the advantages/disadvantages of using external tools in combination with the institutional VLE and the work they are doing to help staff use these external tools. Advantages of using these tools are there are many good […]
I’ve uploaded the presentation of my session to the CrowdVine system used during the conference, but that part can only be access when logged in to the system. So I also uploaded the presentation to Slideshare where it is available to anyone.
