JISC logoThe e-Learning Show – Lifelong Learning

Thursday, 21 May sees the pilot programme of a new JISC live internet radio programme, the e-Learning Show.
 
The programme will be broadcast from 1800 – 1855 UK summer time and is based on issues raised at the recent JISC Lifelong Learning Symposium. A report on the symposium and details will be available from the e-learning blog page http://elearning.jiscinvolve.org/ on the day.
 
Issues discussed will include

  • how university and college cultures need to change to support work based learning,
  • who are the new students and what are their needs
  • how e-Portfolios can be used both for recording learning and for providing information, advice and guidance and
  • the use of mobile technologies to support lifelong learning

The programme considers both current and emergent practices in e-learning and the development of policies to support such practice.
 
The programme will be presented by Graham Attwell and guests include

  • Derek Longhurst from Foundation Degree Forward,
  • Clive Church from Edexel, 
  • Lucy Stone from Leicester College,
  • Tony Toole from the University of Glamorgan,
  • Bob Bell, HE in FE consultant for the northern region,
