Lisa Neal asked a great question in a comment on Learn Trends 2008 - Free Online Conference : What do you see as the main differences between in person and online conferences? I have a bunch of random thoughts on this and I'm hoping that folks will chime in. First let me start with a couple of predictions: Prediction 1 - Online only conferences will rapidly increase and will slow down in-person conferences Prediction 2 - Smaller, targeted, short-burst, rapidly planned conferences will emerge. Now, don't get me wrong, I still very much like to do in-person conferences. I ...

Next week I'm visiting the eLearning Guild's DevLearn conference in San Jose. Another long trip for me, but I'm looking forward to hooking up with more of my online friends and participating in as many of the sessions as I can manage. I'm personally facilitating two sessions: An early morning Breakfast Bytes discussion about Facebook on Wednesday at 7am (I know this is really early, but no problem because the West Coast is 8 hours behind the UK and it'll be 3 in the afternoon for me). A concurrent session on the 30-minute masters later that morning at 10.45. If you spot me at ...

Social Networks, the Next Educational Tool? : “At last year's Educause conference, in Seattle, educators pondered what to do about students' technology habits. Should they try to change them? Accept that they're here to stay? Try to co-opt them? A lot can change in a year. Many colleges seem to have moved on from the question of whether to follow students' lead on technologies they prefer, from Web-based e-mail to Facebook to text messaging. Now, the dilemma they face is whether to adapt students' existing habits - of messaging each other, checking each other's profiles ...

Raph Koster, at the last Game Developers Conference ( 1 , 2 ), shocked a few people when after showing pictures of Club Penguin and Second Life - he juxtaposed those with images of Darfur and Haiti. His point was to ask why game developers are doing what they do - and if they were perhaps squandering the potential of this powerful medium in which they were engaged.
