E-Learning & Cakes

Despite the snow Friday's E-Learning and Cakes had wide ranging discussions (and a wide range of cakes) on the following subjects -
  • Using Personal Response Systems in large lectures.
  • Social networking using Oremi.
  • How to assess work in blogs and wikis.
  • Creating and using podcasts.
  • DACEs interactive website for asylum seekers.
  • The Engineering 'Blackboard Quest' - podcast on this coming soon.
  • The idea of a university wide session on Web 2.0. This met with approval from the academic staff present.
The next session will be at 11:00am on Thursday 15th March in Room 703, which is on the 7th Floor of the Library.

Funny the way things happen... I never really knew about or even considered the benefits of personal response systems for large lectures until our meeting last Friday...In fact, I didnt realise there was a problem...I couldn't believe you could squeeze 370 students into one lecture... But hey I suppose it happens!! Anyways, in a totally unrelated scenario, Clare sent us a blog link about Quizdom Voting System in the classroom... Have a look it might be interesting/relevent to somebody out there...
