[LINK] Learning Commons and Online Course Technology

[Tom Worthington]

Comments are invited on a first rough draft of "Learning Commons 
Technology: The dos and donts in developing learning commons" for the 
2nd Annual Learning Commons Development and Design Forum, Brisbane, 30 
March 2011:

* Slides:

The basic theme here is that hi-tech educational buildings should still 
be for people to talk to people: don't let all the computer gadgets get 
in the way.

Also a poster on "International Graduate Level Sustainable ICT Course" 
for CCA-EDUCAUSE Australasia 2011, in Sydney 3 April 2011:

ps: Submissions for both conferences are in the form of a web page, with 
no PDF or Powerpoint. Meeting the requirements for an academic poster 
using HTML and CSS is a little tricky but seems to be feasible:
