1. Personalisation through technology enhanced learning Gráinne Conole, The Open University, UK E-Portfolio conference City University, 24/06/09 Blog: www.e4innovation.com Websites: ouldi.open.ac.uk olnet.org In memory of Prof. Robin Mason
9. Did we change the world? No. Not yet. But we (and I mean all course participants, not just Stephen and I) managed to explore what is possible online. People self-organized in their preferred spaces. They etched away at the hallowed plaque of “what it means to be an expert”. They learned in transparent environments, and in the process, became teachers to others. Those that observed (or lurked as is the more common term), hopefully found value in the course as well. Perhaps life circumstances, personal schedule, motivation for participating, confidence, familiarity with the online environment, or numerous other factors, impacted their ability to contribute. While we can’t “measure them” the way I’ve tried to do with blog and moodle participants, their continued subscription to The Daily and the comments encountered in F2F conferences suggest they also found some value in the course.

14. Learning in the Cloud Sclater, N. (2009) Clouds are a large pool of easily usable and accessible virtualized resources (such as hardware, development platforms and/or services). These resources can be dynamically re-configured to adjust to a variable load (scale), allowing also for an optimum resource utilization. This pool of resources is typically exploited by a pay-per-use model in which guarantees are offered by the Infrastructure Provider by means of customized SLAs. Coming soon Google wave

Editor's Notes
Our learning systems are increasingly accessible from mobile devices, allowing students for example, to: find out administrative details such as where the tutorial they’re about to attend is read small chunks of course content on the train take a quiz to test their knowledge while on holiday We believe that in the next few years most students will possess a device like this – and many will want to learn using them.
