ETRU WeeklyThis week’s meeting was led by Doug Belshaw. We started with a discussion of Doug’s unusual interview technique (using Twitter) that he successfully employed for a ‘Director of E-Learning’ position. We then moved onto a blog post by Robert Jones entitled My Web is Better, and more on the leaked primary curriculum.

Many thanks to Sinclair Mackenzie for grabbing the audio from the FlashMeeting!

EdTechRoundup Weekly

This week’s EdTechRoundup Weekly followed a week where a lot of people had been busy and therefore not had chance to attend. As a result there was some confusion as to whether it was a ‘blogging special’ or not. In the end, we did mention blogs and issues to do with them, along with:

  • Feedback from the MirandaMod2 (un?)conference
  • Internet filtering and Louise Jones’ Twitter poll
  • A collaborative Google Docs-powered presentation on how to use Netbooks effectively in the classroom
  • A discussion about online calendars, integration with Moodle, and possible ‘homework-casting’ via iTunes!
