Running 2-22 July 2012
We are offering two exciting, intensive and free summer schools this year for students on the MSc in E-learning.
Urban Drift: m-learning with apps Tutor: Dennis Dollens
Explore pedagogical connectivity in urban or natural spaces around you.
Give your assignment a makeover Tutor: Christine Sinclair
Improve your academic writing and develop papers for publication.
Follow the links to find out more and sign up early as places are limited. Please note that these courses are a fantastic way to spend some time over the summer, but they aren’t credit-bearing!
I’d love to sign up for Urban Drift but I’m having trouble with the email address for Dennis. Could you check that it’s right for me? If it is then I’ll try sending from somewhere else and see if it’s a problem this end.
Thanks,
Emma

Hi Emma,
That’s great to hear. This is the blog for the class — I’ll be posting as I test apps for suggested use and you’re welcome to join in, comment, etc.

Both too long sadly – don’t have that much holiday I could take!
In response to Livia – For the academic writing one, I’m assuming around 5 to 8 hours a week, all online. When I’ve sent out the further information (which includes some timings) it has helped people to decide whether or not to go ahead. (It’s gone both ways!)
Maybe this conference on mobile learning in Switzerland is interesting as well in this context. Unfortunately the website seems to be in German only 🙁

Hi Christine
I would be very interested in joining the academic writing class over the summer as I felt more guidance was needed.
