Workshop for OU Students, Associate Lecturers and Alumni interested in Web 2.0
As part of the OU's SociaLearn project, you are invited to attend a workshop to contribute your views on what the OU could/should look and feel like in a Web 2.0 world.
We are bringing together web-savvy OU Students, Alumni and Associate Lecturers to discuss the potential and the pitfalls of learning, mentoring, and doing business on the Open, Social, Free and For-Fee Web.
- What are the characteristics of web-native learners, and what tools do they want/need?
- What new learning/business opportunities - and risks - are opened up by social networking and media sharing tools?
- What do you think of the prototype tools that we will preview?
- Do we need to reframe our ideas of learning?
- What is the OU, once many of its current services are disaggregated to specialist providers on the Web?
If interested, please email SociaLearn with a brief statement of your background, and what you would hope to add to these discussions.
On confirmation of your place, you will receive a briefing pack and travel directions. All accommodation, food and reasonable travel costs are covered. The day will run from noon on 18 June - noon 19 June in or near Milton Keynes.
