DESCRIPTION

This is the microslot presentation I gave at Oxford Geek Night 6 on 22nd April 2008. I wanted to give a brief overview of what is happening in eLearning, the possible things it could lead to, and what other developers can be doing to help prevent this becoming a ‘purchasable product’ in schools.

So... what’s this got to

do with us?

Page 9: The eLearning Agenda

Ask yourself

What affectcan terms of service have?

What does it mean if every

child in a is writing

web pages?

How long did it take us to learn

this stuff?

Do web applications or sites already do

this stuff?

What does this mean for the

online community?

Where do teachers learn how to teach

the web?

What could help

If you know how to do something,

blog about it

Open source example

stylesheets or images

Link to good examples, tutorials

Think about different

learning styles

Know that schools will buy expensive proprietary systems over

‘web standard’ platforms unless they are easier
