This one-day event will take place on Monday 6 April 2009 at Oxford Brookes University's Gipsy Lane Campus in Headington, Oxford, and will showcase the Reinvention Centre space located there.
It's got a lot of useful stuff on trans-national education, and, for those with an interest in e-learning, a big report is just out on the use of Web 2.0 in HE across five countries.

That log in is for anyone in QM, so do pass it on to colleagues who you feel might be interested.
Yes - and nice to see their blogs being used - was looking at some PhD students portfolio's. (Warwick gave all students blogs a couple of years ago risky but looks as if it is paying off, nice blot software used).
Raises the issue about public access - but I guess we are getting more relaxed about that?
I should really make a list of "requirements" to take to the meeting to find out whether the service being presented would indeed allow all this stuff. I was at a training course last Friday on audience voting systems and we had a go at using a thing called PollEverywhere which allows voting by text, web or twitter. David, I think you've mentioned PollEverywhere before? It is rather good. You can get a free Higher Ed account for up to 32 participants...doesn't do any reporting, or there's a variety of paid plans which give access to more sophisticated features. It's quite neat. http://www.polleverywhere.com/
