Interested in e-learning in Wales?

A reminder of the first meet up of the Gwella/ELESIG regional group for Wales, on Monday March 21st 2011. The meet up will run from 10:30 to 14:30, with lunch included and be free of charge due to the funding we have from ELESIG. The meet up will be at three venues, Swansea, Aberystwyth and Glamorgan. The venues will be connected by the Welsh Video Network.

One of the themes of the meeting will be online classrooms and lecture capture and the meet up will have a fairly fluid format allowing as much time as possible for contributions and sharing of experiences. However, discussion will not be limited to a single theme and there will be opportunities to share a variety of experiences.
