Launch event for report on Web 2.0 in higher education A report that explores the impact that web 2.0 and the collaborative, social web are having on higher education in the UK will be launched on May 12, 2009. The report, produced by the committee of inquiry into the changing learner experience, also contains a comparative international review covering the USA, Australia, South Africa and the Netherlands. The report, titled ‘HE in a Web 2.0 World’, will be launched at an event at The Barbican, London and will be hosted by committee chair, Sir David Meville. He said, 'The report evaluates the challenges for universities and their staff in keeping pace with, and capitalising on, these trends and argues there are very strong drivers for change.' Ewan McIntosh, 4iP Digital Commissioner for Scotland and Northern Ireland will also be speaking at the event. The committee was formed to investigate the impact of students’ widespread use social networking technologies such as Facebook, blogs, twitter, podcasting, YouTube and the like on Higher Education. Although an independent committee, it is backed by all of the principal bodies in UK post-compulsory education, namely: the Higher Education Academy (The Academy), Universities UK (UUK), the Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC), the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE), the Scottish Funding Council (SFC), the Higher Education Funding Council for Wales (HEFCW), the Department for Employment and Learning for Northern Ireland (DELNI), Lifelong Learning UK (LLUK), Becta and the Learning and Skills Council (LSC).

Adobe Connect web meeting app - available for free for up to three participants (including host - only one who needs to sign up). Participants simply go to the host's meeting room url (which is easy to remember) and can use webcams/audio, share screen/windows, type messages and meeting notes, use the whiteboard, exchange files.

Looks very good - liked the way it went straight to gmail to find contacts - lets try it more widely.

We recommended this to the folks running a Clinical Dermatology course for holding their virtual tutorials and it seemed to work pretty well. It does require quite an up to date version of the Flash player which can be a problem...i.e. anyone attempting to use a student service machine or some staff with 'managed' computers won't be able to use it. I believe Electronic Engineering have forked out for the "pro" version...or at least they have in the past. As usual with Adobe stuff,,,it looks slick! DimDim is another web-conferencing thingy that seems to get a lot of press...haven't used it myself. Elluminate is another one that I've seen used at several meetings I've been to recently.
