http://www.edtechpost.ca/gems/ etug_roundtable/roundtable_discussion_topics.htm Tomorrow the B.C. Ed Tech Users Group gets together for its bi-annual face to face sessions. I’m hosting a short half-hour discussion on blogs in education, in part as a follow up to the online ‘blogtalk’ we did back in October.

http://learnware.uwaterloo.ca/projects/cloe/bulletin/ CLOE is the Co-operative Learning Object Exchange, an Ontario-wide LOR. Camp CLOE was a 5 day workshop they ran last spring for representatives from the 17 partner institutions. They’ve set this ‘blog’ up in support of the cohort from that session.

http://www.ulist.org/index.htm This is one of those accidental finds that ended up seeming highly relevant but for which I have no background info and really don’t know if it’s real or not. As the site says “ULIST is a website where Web Services interfaces for learning, training and related applications can be exposed for comment and [...]
CMS Evaluation report for the Swiss Virtual Campus
http://www.edutech.ch/edutech/tools/Platforms-report-03-03.pdf Summary report of an evaluation of 5 CMS platforms (a strangish mix of well known CMS, European ones and very training-focused Learning Management Systems) performed for the Swiss Virtual Campus in spring 2003. They looked at Blackboard, Clix, IBT-Server, Qualilearning/Luvit, Globalteach, and WebCT Vista. None of them seemed to match exactly what they were [...]
