EDC Swap Meet 0001

Published Tuesday, March 14, 2006 by Leigh Blackall | E-mail this post

We had our first swap meet today. A small turn out on account of leave and others being too busy, but it was a good opportunity to touch base with each other and for Leigh to introduce some of his work.
We talked about:

Issues with using open wikis to develop documents in EDC and teaching resources generally.
An extended but altogether brief look at Open Networked Learning and the nature of Leigh's past work.
This spilled over to a conversation about the need to have a focused discussion about issues that affect policy and direction of the Polytech. Maxine suggested a retreat. Leigh mentioned the September conference on Open Networked Learning being planned.
The need to get the EDC programmes published as soon as possible to compliment the Individual Development Plans due end of March.

The next swap meet is on 2 May at 12 noon at the Brie Cafe in Tennyson St.
