e-Learning Stuff Podcast #021: Goldilocks, what’s that all about then?

So what do you understand by inclusion? Can we use learning technologies to improve inclusivity?

We discuss the ILT Champions Conference at Gloucestershire College, including the unconference format used and the learning spaces seen at the college. Do we need big names at conferences? Do we need keynotes? How do we make conferences financially viable?

We move onto planning. Do you plan your lessons a week, a month or a year in advance? Is planning a good thing or does it hinder creativity?

Podcast Break

Apologies, for a variety of reasons I have been unable to record a podcast this week, so no new e-Learning Stuff Podcast this week. There may not be one next week (as it is Easter).

I am always looking for contributors to the podcast.

I usually use Skype, but can now take contributions by (normal) phone, so you don’t need Skype and I can call you on your phone.

Leave a message for me in the comments, contact me on Twitter or e-mail me.

e-Learning Stuff Podcast #019: W.. W.. W.. W.. Wikipedia

This is the nineteenth e-Learning Stuff Podcast, W.. W.. W.. W.. Wikipedia.

However, some important questions have yet to be addressed.
