I spent an interesting and useful hour this morning on a Skype conference call with colleagues from all over the country. The idea which we had initially discussed at the JISC conference in March was for an eLearning podcast but a very informal and chatty one. It was all hosted and co-ordinated by non other than James Clay who is pretty well known on the eLearning scene and featured in an earlier post with his video from ALT-C. He did all the techy recording stuff and five of us just chatted – though apparently I need to work on my levels! Hopefully, we’ll get a couple of 15 minutes sessions which we can publish. We chatted briefly about the Learning for Living and Work projects which have been going on in the North West and Yorkshire and Humber and on the ‘Digital Native, Digital Immigrant’ debate which is covered in just about everybody’s blogs – see links below. We’re hoping to do this on a weekly basis and to bring in lots of other eLearning folks also. For those who cannot see any use for Jaiku, this was arranged and organised on there. The final thing will be published on James’ blog – eLearning Stuff. The five of us were, as well as me and James, Dave Sugden elearning consultant and general good chap, based in Huddersfield, Dave Foord another eLearning consultant from Loughborough (I think), and Nick Jeans an eLearning professional from Sheffield – no online presence yet but wait for it. Thanks guys – as the saying goes – I think it’s got legs.

Thnaks for taking the time to comment Hector. We have quite high hopes for the scheme and I’ll post as I’m sure James will when they are ready.

A little late as I have been at various conferences over the last couple of weeks and didn’t have the time I thought I was going to have.
