I've seen a lot of coverage this week from mLearning 08, which appears to have been quite a good conference. I'll lead here with this summary by Ignatia of Diane Laurillard on mobile learning methods. We also have Steven Johnson on the sleeper curve in culture and education, danah boyd on learning from young people using technology, and Laurie O'Donnel' on different ways of evaluating success in education systems ("Finland: how safe do you feel on the streets, how healthy are your people, longevity, how many people do you send to jail? It goes way beyond improving test scores or training productive workers"). Many of these have links to audio and video recordings.
