Composing your Learning Environment; new technologies



Led by Wilbert Kraan and Sheila MacNeill

This session builds on the Composing your VLE session on day 1.

The session will start with a recap of the [[Media:ComposedLE.pdf|models (PDF)]] and and interfaces discussed the previous day. We'll then take a look at the following models and interface technologies:


 * Many providers and many clients (e.g. Google Wave)
 * interface technologies: Wave protocol, Google Wave extension APIs
 * Both a provider and a client (e.g. Sakai 3)
 * interface technologies: OpenSocial

In the second part of the session we will break into small groups for discussion around the drivers and barriers for adoption of these models within current institutional contexts. We will then reform and as a whole group cluster the key common drivers and barriers to adoption.


 * Sheila's blog post summary of the 2 days
