Jossey-Bass conference - Creating an online presence in teaching

Just finished listening in to Rosemary Lehman and Simone Conceicao present on Creating a Sense of Presence in Online Teaching and Learning Environments. Todd Conaway, an instructional designer at Yavapi College was in the virtual audience and shared a link to his blog on the topic:

Following the 2010 Jossey-Bass Online Learning Conference

I am virtually attending the 2010 Jossey-Bass Online Learning Conference today and tomorrow (10/20 to 10/21) as my schedule permits. Webinars are growing in favor with me - no travel and you can check in and check out whenever you need to. Each session is recorded so I can return or replay it when it fits.

Getting things underway

After a time of inactivity, it is time to write and blog more on "open learning." Posting to a blog is certainly not close to authoring a book or conducting research. However, it is one of the ways to get writing underway and to work on conditioning one's thinking "muscles."

Time to workout the thought muscles and get in shape. :-)

Digital Literacy Seminar

Thanks to a tweet from Sian Bayne at Edinburgh University, here is a link to the Literacy in the Digital University conference being hosted by Open University in the UK.
