New Season of IET Technology Coffee mornings

Professor Martin Weller and Dr Juliette Culver present the first IET Technology Coffee Morning in the 2012 series on Wednesday 4th April at 10:00 am when they talk about what they learnt from ‘Flickr photo a day’ and the implications this approach has for education.

On 18th April Dr Yishay Mor shares his experiences of using Google Apps as a technological platform to support student discussions and learning to provide them with an intense and rewarding learning experience.

Professor Mike Sharples will demonstrate and discuss the nQuire system and explain how it supports scientific inquiry learning, from data collection in the field to sharing results. This coffee morning takes place on 2nd May.

Subsequent IET Technology Coffee mornings which are aimed at any Open University staff members cover topics ranging from ‘Bridge to Success’, ‘Creative approaches to cross-platform content on YouTube and iTunesU’, to ‘Conducting Usability Evaluations Remotely’. They all start at 10:00 am with tea and coffee provided. For the complete schedule and updates on these events please see http://cloudworks.ac.uk/cloudscape/view/2107
