Glasgow IATEFL: Interview with Nik Peachey

Nik Peachy the self-confessed Learning Technologies Guru was interviewed yesterday live on IATEFL online. Here's a mindmap summary of what he talked about:

He brought up some interesting points all of which I personally found to be very relevant especially his point about how educational institutes need to rethink their syllabus offer to incorporate perhaps blended learning and develop students' digital literacies. Something myself  am pushing for where I work.

He mentioned the tool Scoop.it this can be used to make digital magazines, which you can follow in the same way you may be following people or topics on twitter. I currently follow 2 scoop.its.

Learning Bytes from The Consultants E

ESL Interactive Games and Quizzes for IWBS

I've just spent about 5 minutes having a play with the tool and it's very simple to register and set up so I've created this one.
