Thursday I was invited to host a Moodle chat with SCoPE folks from Simon Fraser University, informal and inspriring: some of the participants, Alice mcGillivray, Sylvia Currie and Cindy Xin, were actually busy attending the elearn 05 conference. This was one of those typical getting to know each other events, where we were refresing old connections and trying to introduce nrebies to an informal chat, where the information was embedded in our conversation, and not planned, and we did not try to set up an artifical structure of our chat session, by making rules or taking turns. Moodle has one good feature that I like: if people have a photo in their profice, this will pop up each time they are talking, at the left of their message.
I've still not read a chatlog, but would like to find time to do so, as I know that I was interrupted at a moment, here at home, and missed some of what people said, recorded chatlogs are so good for catching up.
Those who were at the elearn 05 conference told a bit about interesting sessions they had followed, and one was Curtis Bonk, He's also coming for the WIAOC online conference in November, the first Webheads convergence conference, that I am going to write some more about anytime soon.
