Handheld Learning - learning with mobile and ubiquitous technologies

 

Well it has been found.

I am suspecting that one of the little people in my house moved it, because I found it in a bag I know I didn't take to London with me.

All's well though.

Wow, lots of good stuff here! And James, that video is hilarious!

Better late than never, I suppose, so again congratulations to all of the winners, and to Graham for putting on this event!

Here's the final delegate newsletter from Handheld Learning 2008 with links to all the goodies

Cheers Jon. Be interesting to talk with you more about the 'Twitter' experience. Do you think you might be tempted to volunteer for a short recorded conversation?

Stu

sounds interesting. Certainly found things like twitter useful at events I was at and those I wasnt! :-)

There's a variety of independent video's captured from the conference here

I also found a terrific set of video interviews conducted by the Joan Ganz Cooney Center at Sesame Workshop, New York (www.cooneycenter.org) on YouTube:

Here's one from James Clay who presented in the MoLeNET Showcase and kindly recorded it and uploaded to YouTube. Nice one James!

Hi All

I am starting some research into how mobile devices affect our everyday interactions, especially at events. It's quite a broad mandate and learning is just one aspect (so apologies if anyone thinks its off topic).

Would really appreciate any comments or story swaps etc.. Also, if anyone is willing to take part in recorded conversations about this please let me know.

You can keep up with blog posts about the work here.

I would like to invite you and your studetns to participate in a collaborative Election Day project where students from several international locations may use their cell phones to  document something that is happening on November 4 related to the U.S. Election. We are seeking participation from all over the world, and would greatly appreciate it if you would share this project with your students.

Students may use their cell phones to send photos and videos to go@utterli.com. Students may also call a local phone number to record a voice post that will be published immediately to a central blog. To use their cell phones students must sign up for a  FREE account on Utterli. Details are in the instructions which are attached to this note. Instructions are also available here: http://unix.temple.edu/~susanj/usvoters2.htm.

Alternatively, students may take a regular photo or video or write something about Election Day where they are located by joining our USVoters Ning and posting to the blog. This does not involve using a cell phone. Instructions are attached.

If you could share this with your students, I would greatly appreciate it. We would welcome their participation. All of the material will be posted here:

http://usvoters.ning.com

Students may edit their posts, comment on other posts and upload additional material on the Ning.

If you need more information about this project, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Thanks for your time and attention!
