The product will merge texts, online chats, and emails into one central hub.

Workshop Overview The teachers will be led through a series of activities involving various applications, to invoke the development of the stated activity. The following lists the areas of focus covered during the workshop:

Today, Google launched a new community on YouTube for Google Docs users to share tips and ideas for using Google Docs in education and other arenas. The community features how-to videos created by Google and by Google Docs users just like you. The video playlists cover everything from the very basics through advanced features of spreadsheets in Google Docs.

The reality is that developing mobile solutions, whether for learning or another purpose, requires a significant investment in technology and skills, either or both of which the current HR or learning department may not possess.

Given the ties mobile will have to the organization’s Web infrastructure, IT will want to have input to issues such as security, the devices involved, sharing of data, bandwidth, and customer support (who gets called when there is a problem), as well as a myriad of other issues.

First, be aware of the many groups that have a stake or interest in mobile development in general, not just mobile learning

Fun to use and uniquely stylish, Xtranormal Messenger for iPhone is the first App to actually let you create and share fully-animated 3D movies. Start by typing or voice-recording a short message, then choose a 3D character to speak it, add an animated gesture, a 3D environment or background photo - and share it instantly via email or social media platforms such as Twitter(TM) and Facebook(TM). Xtranormal’s proprietary Text-to-Movie(TM) technology even makes it possible to preview your fully-rendered animation clip before you send it!

How to Get through a Creative Block

Doesn’t matter what transpires what matters is doing.

Massive action all combine to get you out of your lethargy

Two things really struck me about the iPad during my time with it. The first was how it extended my activity in reality. The touch screen feels like an natural extension of myself.

This is a huge paradigm shift

the device changed my perception of connecting

Social learning has taken on a kind of religious fervor among learning practitioners during the past couple of years—and not without good reason. It often creates more powerful and enduring learning experiences; it helps people establish and leverage social connections to accelerate the distribution and sharing of experiences, content, and guidance; and it allows learners to be more productive, learn faster, and work smarter.

it’s easy to lose focus on what matters, and to assume the end game is the technology

A social learning strategy should paint a compelling picture of the future state, clearly articulate the business case for change, and outline the roadmap for how you will get from “here” to “there” (including what must change, stop, and continue)

The iPad has a bigger screen, and so it has a bigger resolution. With the iPhone 4, however, Apple did something different: they increased the resolution without changing the physical size of the screen. This makes for a higher pixel density, pixels are smaller and more tightly packed. In one square inch of the iPhone 4’s screen there are around 106 thousand pixels (at 326 PPI, or Pixels per Inch), while the older models have only about 26 thousand (at 163 PPI) in an inch – 4 times less! This makes graphics on the screen seem like continuous lines, because your eye can’t see the individual pixels. Apple calls this technology the “Retina Display” because they claim the human eye (the retina) can’t physically see the pixels at this resolution.

Using Two Images The official way of adding high-resolution support to your application is by having two versions of each image, one in “regular” resolution and one in double resolution. Whenever your application is viewed on the Retina Display, the larger image will be loaded automatically. This method allows for full and precise control of how your application will look in each case, and is very easy to apply to your existing applications. The full size image file should be named however you want, such as “Button.png”. Use this image name in your code and Interface Builder wherever you want to reference the image. The double-size image should be twice the size of its matching smaller image and named exactly the same with “@2x” appended to the name. In our example, we would name it “Button@2x.png”. Unfortunately, this technique will not work on the iPad; a pixel-doubled application will not load the higher resolution resource. This will probably be addressed in the future iOS 4 update which is scheduled to come to iPad this fall.

There has been a lot of buzz about MOOC, the free Massive Open Online Course.  To date, many learners have signed up and participated in this form of super-sized open education course

This paper presents a model which distinguishes between planned learner-content interaction and learner-learner interaction and suggests that a blend of planned and non-planned learner-learner interaction is worthwhile. It concentrates on technology enhanced learning using video communications which provide opportunities for more authentic online collaborative learning, formally and informally.
