I'm sure I'll blog about it if I attend.I make no promises on quality though J
Might be informative to the list to see Martin's comments on OER13 http://blog.wikimedia.org.uk/2013/04/open-educational-resources-some-reflect ions-on-oer-13/ I was actually looking to see if there was a paper too but couldn't find it - Martin? I guess I also wonder what you think about how useful attending was/would be? Cheers Simon From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Martin Poulter Sent: 19 September 2013 17:12 To: UK Wikimedia mailing list Subject: Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Open access and open education I would love to return to the OER conference, and I'll have time because my Jisc project will be over, but it's hundreds of pounds to send a volunteer and I've already had a turn. Hence my raising it here. Simon, if you go to the Distance Education event, might you write up another of your excellent blog posts?
