From EduBlogs to the Collective Consciousness

By Stephen Downes
February 27, 2006

I'm at the ASTE conference in Anchorage, Alaska, where I conducted an all day seminar yesterday (the "Director's Cut") and a keynote address this morning. For the seminar I created a Jot wiki. Here are the PowerPoint slides from the keynote. I also have audio from the seminar - Part One, Part Two, each about 18 megabytes. And audio from the keynote, about 9 megabytes.

Stephen, Thanks for sharing all that as demonstrates your philosophy. I was just concerned that you backed away from notions of learning objects and content is king that may still be serviceable, especially since the sores they are medicine for are still festering in the mainstream. For instance, I had been thinking we could brainstorm with the ed-cast repository of sharable academic podcasts in terms of audio learning objects. Especially if there is some occasion around August 22-September 22 for which I could get my college to spill for a plane ticket to the West Coast. My wife Chisato hasn't been to North America yet!
