Conference on Learning Futures in Leicester (now on)
I’m at the conference in Leicester and it has been great so far. There are about 150 delegates, mainly from the UK. We had five keynotes and three discussion sessions and it was a very fast-paced day. The keynotes were by
- Gilly Salmon who also organized the conference together with her team of the Beyond Distance Research Alliance
- Bob Fryer, National Director of Widening Participation, Department of Health on "How to reconcile Max Weber and Pablo Picasso - competency, creativity and technology in the 21st"
- by Dr. Robin Goodfellow (Institute of Educational Technology, Open University) on "The relation of emerging Web 2.0 internet practices on future developments in teaching and learning
- and by two students of the University of Leicester looking at their fellow students’ views on e-learning
