The day 2011-10-07 on @techczech

  • Important and not at all inappropriate: What Everyone Is Too Polite to Say About Steve Jobs http://t.co/RxTTnR7R #
  • Wow, a good post about open source on @techcrunch : LibreOffice and OpenOffice.org: One Year After the Schism http://t.co/0PZLjoGe #
  • Celebrated the legacy of #SteveJobs by buying an #Android tablet. Didn' t like the man but will acknowledge his impact on my life in tech. #
  • Wish there had been more discussion of open source, open data and open educational resources at #fote11 #opensourcehippie #oer #
  • Ditto: RT @sardarl: Great presentation from Dr Su White at #fote11 Best one of the day for me! #
  • University of Southampton has embraced mashups and open data streams. Very encouraging. If only there was more of this out there. #fote11 #
  • "Learning is not tidy" < True but the system of qualifications is forcing pretend tidiness assuming edu & learning are 1 and same. #fote11 #
  • "VLEs are the tools of the devil." because learning is not tidy. #fote11 #edtech #
  • Thanks for the reminder at #fote11 – it is Ada Lovelace day #ALD11 Let's not forget the importance of women in tech. #feminism #
  • Had a moment of panic at #fote11 when it looked liked the speaker was not going to use PowerPoint. Might actually have to pay attention. #
  • Disappointed how corporate and non-specific the student IT rights charter is. Also it would be nice if it included responsibilities. #fote11 #
  • "The easiest way to solve problems in education is to get rid of the students." #fote11 #
  • RT @davidmatthewman: #fote11 BYOD for distance learning students. At the OU we treat self sufficiency with IT as a key learning outcome. #
  • RT @lisaharris: We need to get the underlying systems working better – mobile access to a screwed timetable adds no value #byod #fote11 #
  • RT @jamesclay: RT @60seven: It's about delivery of content to work across devices. Not about whether people are bringing them or not #fote11 #
  • RT @adriangraham: technology changes but we return to the same basic problems:effective communication, control issues, inflexibility #fote11 #
  • RT @spellerlive: Ahh – the academics won't use the VLE – there's a new thought!!!!! #fote11 #byod #
  • RT @mcockshoot: RT @_Scruffian: Students bring digital identities, not just devices. Why do we force new ones on them? #fote11 #
  • "Why should universities provide good service because students are paying 9k in fees? They should be providing good service already" #fote11 #
  • RT @cbthomson: #fote11 Bring your own device or bring the device we tell you? #BYOD #
  • Future of Education is: personal, bleak, lacking systemic sense of purpose, mobile, gaming, web services, meta data, users. #fote11 #edtech #
  • I'm at #fote11 Looking forward to #140 challenge, #byod and the #tmwwt game. #
  • Heading down to #fote11 Running late, missed train by 3 secs. #
