I was lost and now I'm found - well maybe!
I've been conscious that I haven't contributed anything either for myself or to this community for some time. Not that you've been waiting for a post from me! Nevertheless, I think that I'm the poorer for not finding the time to be here. I have popped in every now and again - often to give people a view of Elgg and evangelise the site a bit. I still think that the participatory and self configurable web currently offers the most to learners - and I still think that learners means everyone.
I've changed jobs over the cusp of the year which might be my excuse for not being here. I'm still working in learning technologies with different conditions impacting on what I do. The focus is still on the learning with the technology still the enabler. Trying to reduce the admin side of making sure things work and making sure that I get out to work with staff more. Many are really keen to embrace e-learning and although others are more reticent or suspicious (should that be unsure?), one of my tasks is to make it seem as easy and seamless for them as possible. This should make it more feasible for them to deliver cogent and useful learning via online media.
Listening to the Beatles 'Helter Skelter' while I write this and thinking that getting to the bottom and going back to the top is apt in the rapid development of e-learning opportunities - such is serendipity!
