Yesterday I got an email from Sandy Jensen Brown Jensen Brown- she is good at letting me know something is amiss with the ds106 Daily Create. Usually the […]

As part of my fellowship for the OER Research Hub at the Open University I am sharing these excerpts from conversations about OER use/creation recorded in April 2014 with faculty at the Maricopa Community Colleges. James Sousa, a mathematics faculty at Phoenix College, has quietly produced an impressive collection of openly shared tutorial videos and […]
Yes, as promised, I have confirmed that Milton Keynes has plenty of roundabouts, but more importantly, I am here as a (brief) fellow at the Open University, for the OER Research Hub project.

I will toss in a few more bits at lunch time, heading out tonight from Phoenix for the direct hop to London. There’s a few days adjustment, Still Web planning, and I expect tangential conversations with Mariana Funes. But I am really going to visit Colin. I hear we are traveling in fine mode to […]
