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:

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,

Hi Andy,
Do you know of anyone else who is making recordings of this conference and putting them up anywhere? I wanted to attend, but circumstances prevented that.
Thanks for this work.
Best,
Jim Lerman
