As described in a number of tweets and via a short message to members of my immediate network, I am now calling for a wider participation from Twitter peeps via #mlearning #edchat #vicpln #ascilite11 for my upcoming presentation at #elearning11 to be held in the Menzies Hotel, Sydney Australia on Wednesday, December 7, 2011.
The idea behind the presentation is to engage in the conversation space that takes in all views on a specific topic area and then to, as part of the presentation provides these perspectives for feedback from a wide audience both physical and virtual.
Here is a presentation I created on the 28th August 2007 on the topic of mlearning as an example -
12,830 views !!
So here is the topic this time, the format and the manner in which you can engage with me.
Topic: Geolocation
Question: What do YOU consider to be of importance when thinking of geolocation in an educational context ?
Step 1 - Think of the topic.
Step 2 - Think of the myriad of ways in which you are already using location enabled features in the online or mobile technologies you own or use at work
Step 3 - Compose a paragraph or two on the topic.....no more than 100 words or so
Step 4 - Select an image or an application screenshot and save ( something you have permission to publish)
Step 5 - Send both the paragraph of text and the image to me at
alex@alexanderhayes.com.....I will also need your full name, your organisation or business name and some way that the public could contact you back ie. a Twitter address perhaps
Ok.....so what will I do with that information ?
I will ( as per the growing presentation that you can access here -
http://bit.ly/tBltzI ) add your details to a slide, your text, your image and insert it amongst all others.
During my presentation I will "introduce you", will read your slide and will allow members of the physical audience and the virtual audience to dwell on your image.
Whats in it for me ? Well, a whole heap of work but a well rounded series of perspectives on the topic and in return you receive publication, attention and gratitude !
I hope you will join me and at all times you can see the presentation growing -
