Great overview of how to get the most out of posterous. Get your emails to post to a shared blog site, allow group editing of "blog", multi-post to social networks via email/posterous, etc. Posterous adds a great level of flexibility to social networks. - Mike Fandey

Highlights and Sticky Notes:

There are no forms to fill in; you simply send an email to post@posterous.com. Whatever you put in this email becomes the first post for your new blog.

When posting via email, the Subject line is the post’s title and any text or attached files also become part of the post, either embedded or as a download. The way Posterous handles media is seriously impressive. Images will display in the post, for example, while MP3s and videos are playable directly in the page. Even other files, such as PDFs and Word documents, are viewable directly from your blog.

Top 50 Mobile Learning Resources | Upside Learning Blog

Thu, 10 Dec 2009 11:37:37 -0000

"I’ve spent an inordinately long time writing a whitepaper on mobile learning trying to expound our thoughts about it and how it might be used in the workplace. I’ve been doing some research around it and I’ve documented some of the better links I’ve come across. Again, as with the links I posted about Games and Simulation, these aren’t categorized in any way nor does the order assume any significance.

If you’re considering mobile learning in any shape or form, I’d suggest you give these a browse. One of the travails of my paper writing (still continues) was that good web resources were quite hard to find, so be spared the ordeal, this is a good place to start."

About - JISC Learner Experience Phase 2 - Brookes Wiki

Wed, 09 Dec 2009 17:09:36 -0000

"This web site synthesises outputs from the JISC Learner Experiences of e-Learning programme. The programme spanned two phases over four years from 2005-2009. It comprised nine research projects in total (two in phase 1 and seven in phase two), employed mixed method approaches, and had the sustained involvement of over 200 learners and more than 3000 survey respondents. Five national workshops were run disseminating the methods and findings.

The programme focussed on the learner voice. Learners allowed us into their worlds and showed us what it is like to study in a technology-rich age. The projects produced a huge collection of rich, detailed data that sheds light on what learners expect from the use of technology in post-compulsory education and the choices they make about using technology to support their study."

Academic Evolution: Scholarly Communications Must Transform

Wed, 09 Dec 2009 11:25:51 -0000

"Ever since the 17th century, the "advancement of learning" as Francis Bacon calle"

"Ever since the 17th century, the "advancement of learning" as Francis Bacon calle" - cristina costa

Highlights and Sticky Notes:

Ever since the 17th century, the "advancement of learning" as Francis Bacon called it, has depended upon the way print publications have organized the evaluation and dissemination of academic work. The print medium has been the default scholarly medium.

print is no longer the primary intellectual medium, and it is time for scholars to move forward.

Knowledge has new habits, new identities, and a new social life within the radically transformed ways in which communication takes place today.

We must have a scholarly communications system configured to the predominant communications medium of the new millennium.

Academics who refuse to transform the way they communicate and value information will find, like the professional journalists, that they simply won't play much of a role in the knowledge commons.
