Podcast on Inclusion, conferences, and lesson planning

The last few months I have rather busy so have be unavailable for the e-learning stuff podcasts series, but last week could find the time to join one of these casts, which as usual took a meandering wandering through various topics, starting with the idea of an unconference, then onto do we need big name [...]

Podcast – snow and e-learning

After a break of quite a few weeks, I was involved in another panel podcast, hastily arranged and recorded to discuss the topical issue of the disruption to education caused by snow, and how e-learning could paly a part (now and in the future).
The podcast can be found at http://elearningstuff.wordpress.com/2009/02/08/e-learning-stuff-podcast-012-its-snow-joke/

Podcast on Google Docs (and a few other things)

Last week I contributed to another panel podcast, this time with only 3 of us, and we discussed the uses of tools like Google Docs in education. Google Docs is improving all the time, and there is a lot that can be done with it, which when I get a bit of time will have [...]

Podcast on the ‘The VLE Debate’

I was involved in a podcast the other week, debating the role (and future) of the formal VLE within education. What was interesting about this podcast was that on the panel involved there was a range of views on the topic, which should have made it interesting listening materials.
I agree with Steve Wheeler’s views that [...]

Podcast on the issue of links opening in new windows

Windows 2007
Originally uploaded by Marius!!

I recently partook in a panel podcast, this time the topic being the issue of whether links should open in a new window or open in the same window. I don’t think we came to a clear conclusion, but touched on many other aspects in passing.
Listen to the podcast here – [...]

Podcast on e-learning and teacher training

Again I have been involved in producing a podcast, this time on the role of teacher training and e-learning. As we recorded the podcast, a few comments were made about us being negative (and this has influenced the title of this episode) but listening to it again, I don’t think that we were as negative [...]

Podcast on the impact of the asus eee pc and other devices

Last week I was again involved in the recording of a podcast, on the impact that the asus eee pc has had on education since it first appeared about 1 year ago.
The podcast can be accessed here http://elearningstuff.wordpress.com/2008/11/09/e-learning-stuff-podcast-006-you-say-asus-and-i-say-asus/ but if you haven’t time to listen to it all – here are my views on the [...]

Podcast on Skype conferencing

Similar to my previous blog posting where 5 of us met up virtually via Skype to record a podcast, the discussions that took place before we ‘officially’ started recording were actually recorded and turned into a podcast.
Full details and the podcast itself are available on http://elearningstuff.wordpress.com/2008/10/26/e-learning-stuff-podcast-005-its-because-hes-from-sheffield/
This is certainly less polished than even the previous podcast, [...]

Podcast on digital immigrants, natives, visitors and residents

A few weeks ago, I took part in a 5 way Skype conference along with James Clay, Lisa Valentine, Nick Jeans and David Sugden. The idea was to discuss the possibility of people like us holding regular recorded podcasts on different educational topics. We didn’t set out with the intention of recording this first session, [...]
