Just looking back over my forum posts, I think I could be accused of […] -

Hi Peter
Interesting – a comparison with Yammer might be useful. As you say, Twitter will continue to dominate because it has ‘a much larger userbase and many active educator networks’. However a lot of academics shy away from it so alternatives are always welcome.

This was a productive week during which many topics were aired. Unexpectedly I ended up starting a discussion on twitter as well as in the octel forum on anonymous marking. There are some strong feelings out […]

I had given very little thought to badges before this course but as I found myself on the receiving end I started paying more attention. My initial skepticism was replaced by real curiosity as I saw the high […] -

I agree with the other comments that this is a great concept – learning to teach online while also being a student. However I would sound a note of caution – have you ever run this Jim? It sounds highly ambitious to expect GTAs, who are new to teaching generally, to digest all the concepts, get to grips with being a an online learner, design a…[Read more]

I can empathise with this Jim – long term, institution (& cross institution) wide projects are often very fraught because of politics and the undue influence of key individuals. Our VLE transition dragged out over an unnecessarily long period due to changes in both IT & corporate senior management leading to interference in the form of ill…[Read more]

And another very specific issue we had when we employed an external to develop our initial Second Life simulations was IP – who owned the rights to what? However overall it was successful as we simply didn’t have the in house expertise at the time. As you say Peter there are always pros & cons.

… and as an addendum to this – academic staff who are involved in development projects often don’t assert themselves and say they’re too busy. However they often don’t deliver either, which is worse.

Rose Heaney replied to the topic in the forum 10 years, 6 months ago
Staffing be it technical (or learning tech) in this case or academic as in Lisa’s example and several distance learning programmes I have known here is a vexed issue. Too many assumptions are often made about the availability of already busy and over-committed people.
Good to see how you managed to stand your ground Moira in this instance but…[Read more]
