I admit that I’m way too slow with my blog posts and I promise to be quicker in the future although I still don’t really know how all the other bloggers manage. Anyway, after so many people already commented on the Learntec (e.g. Gabi Reinmann in her E-Denkarium, Peter Baumgartner, and many more), I would like to draw my personal conclusions as well. After this post, I will post a few (German) summaries on the sessions that I attended which I hope some of you will enjoy. Anyway, here are my highlights:

  • The keynote by Martin Eppler from the University of Lugano who talked about the possibilities of knowledge visualisation and certainly got me motivated to learn more about this subject (see also his website on Visual Literacy and this blog post).
  • My second highlight was Gabi Reinmann’s and Thomas Sporer’s presentation on the connection between knowledge management and e-learning and how web2.0 and the knowledge management of each individual could provide the link between the two domains. However, they also pointed out how important it is to retain the differentiation between the two. Their slides are available here and my summary can be found in this post.
  • The introduction to the community platform "Dropping Knowledge" by Prof. Hans Uszkoreit from the DFKI in Saarbrücken which I find quite a fascinating project.
