Talk:Blended Learning

This is the first page in this wiki attempting to develop some ideas on blended learning in courses for 16-18 year olds (A levels in UK).


 * I've included a quote from elearnspace.org. This site has a link to the Creative Commons License and I think I can include the quote with reference made to the author and a link to the site.  This is ok for copyright rules, right? --Yvonne 13:14, 16 September 2007 (CEST)


 * I'm pretty sure that's OK. Seems to be pretty standard blogging practice.  You might want to add some quotes, because if I hadn't read your comment here I would assume that you were paraphrasing Siemens in your page.--David McQuillan 20:20, 2 November 2007 (CET)


 * Thanks David. I've added quotes. I thought that using blockquote meant I didn't have to do quotation marks but you're right it makes sense to have them. --Yvonne 10:35, 5 November 2007 (CET)


 * Re: Wordprocessing/Spreadsheets
 * Have you considered the use of google docs & spreadsheets? It seems to me that these collaborative tools lend themselves to some different types of class activities than what can be done with desktop software.--David McQuillan 20:48, 2 November 2007 (CET)


 * I'll add a link. I've looked at these and they look usable, just don't have the opportunity to try them out with a class at present. --Yvonne 10:35, 5 November 2007 (CET)


 * Thanks for that link to Wikipedia's description of a LMS - I needed something like that.--David McQuillan 20:48, 2 November 2007 (CET)


 * Re: Using Web 2.0 tools
 * Pageflakes is a great way of bringing a whole set of feeds together into the same page. You can then publish your page so that it has a URL which you can give to your class.--David McQuillan 20:48, 2 November 2007 (CET)


 * I looked at your pageflakes - nice central point for a range of blogs. Thanks. --Yvonne 10:35, 5 November 2007 (CET)


 * Have a look at [Computer Literacy Resources] there might be some useful resources for you & your page there.--David McQuillan 20:48, 2 November 2007 (CET)


 * Yes - it's good isn't it! I've read through it - just not got to the links yet. But thanks for the pointer :)--Yvonne 10:35, 5 November 2007 (CET)
