Lorcan Dempsey's weblog: The changing education experience: "the largest surprise so far is the continuing value students place on face-to-face contact, despite the time they spend on the web. This does not mean they regard teaching staff in the same way as their predecessors did. "Because web 2.0, Google, Wikipedia are all about being able to change things yourself, the expectations of learners change as a result of that," says Melville. "Universi ties are beginning to notice this. There is a greater expectation from students that they are involved in the design of their education.&quo t; ["
eFoundations: Brief thoughts on the CETIS Conference 2008: "I found there to be something of a discord between Andrew Feenberg' s promotion of the value of face-to-face lecturer/stude nt contact in the form of the traditional lecture (as opposed to textual renditions of the same, e.g. a streamed video) somewhat at odds with his own delivery style - which was basically to read out a written paper, a style that I find quite difficult to properly engage with. I also felt he underplayed the kind of collaborative learning that can take place, facilitated by social networks and/or virtual worlds, around streamed media. That said, his introduction of the "city vs. factory" metaphor for learning was genuinely valuable and the fact that his talk was constantly referenced during the two days undoubtedly shows the mark of a good keynote."
