Hi everyone,
I've recorded a series of podcasts at the anytime, anywhere learning
foundation summit (aalf.org) here in Boston. Each podcast is about 45
minutes long, between 15 and 20 megabytes.
Ben Shneiderman:

Ben is the author of Da Vinci's Laptop, and is a computer
scientist/edtech researcher at the University of Maryland. He talks
about the need to make students ecstatic about learning, using
authentic, interactive learning experiences that positively affect the
community. He also talks about his work with Hive Group
(http://www.hivegroup.com/), developing web-based visualization tools
for exploring complex data sets.
Mike Furdyk:

Mike is one of the founders of TakingITGlobal.org, the global youth
activism network. He talks about his life growing up with technology
from the time he was a toddler, and how it led to him creating an online
community where young people can come together to affect positive social
change.
Tim Magner:
http://www.andycarvin.com/archives/2006/06/tim_magner_laptops_a.html
Tim is the director of the Office of Education Technology at the US
Department of Education. In his presentation, he offers a broad overview
of emerging technologies, from mobile devices to nanotechnology, and
examines the role these tools should play in education and educational
management.
Hope you enjoy the podcasts.
thanks,
andy
