Using Free Content and Open Tools in Our Schools




Free HugsHave just been catching up on some podcasts and heard one posted some time ago by Wes Fryer which was a conference recording of a workshop at NCCE 2008 Podcast230: Free Content + Open Tools + Massive Collaboration = Learning for All by Karen Fasimpaur This was very, very useful for schools who are just getting into the Web2.0 world and beginning to publish online (often being quite negligent of the source of the content that is going up!) Karen’s Wiki is a great resource for teachers looking to learn more about this area and to come onboard with the sharing of their own resources. Wes Fryer’s very comprehensive notes of the session are also fantastic for quick links based on Karen’s presentation as well as being a great example of the sort of notes that can be shared on a ning following or during a workshop. I can only hope for some great examples on our ning during the 21C Learning @ HK Conference.

I welcome discussion on the issues of using free content and open Tools for learning in Hong Kong schools.
