Hi all Welcome to Flexible Learning Environments


This subject is largely based on your overall
involvement and personal online reading and contributions.

Encouraging communication in the subject means that everyone should try to be involved once a week in making contributions to an online disciussion a personal blog and a half hour evening online chat.

Learning about the chat and collaborative learning enviroments will be part of the subject content and part of what we need to get experience of as part of the subject.<

So you will need to start to use some of these environments tonight or whatever time of day you are accessing this.

First thing is to say hello in the online discussion

What do you think the video below is trying to suggest - do you agree ? Click on the comment section below and say what you think

Hi Everyone,

I have watched the video and the message I believe that they are trying to convey is that using things like text, images and videos in an electronic environment is so much more flexible in terms of who can access the material and from anywhere. It means that communication in a digital world can easily occur via blogs, web pages and videos. It suggests the digital world is where almost anything is possible.

I found the video very interesting - I think the message was that the web has changed in the last (5) years. It used to be the exclusive domain for those who knew programing and html. Now we are all able to contribute (even when there is nothing much to say...)The net is connecting people across the globe - MySpace, MSN, YouTube, del.icio.us, Bloglines etc.
The video made me think of the George Orwell book 1984 - the ministry of truth(?) re-wrote history every day.

Hi all,

I enjoyed the video. I thought it developed in the same way that the net has been developing in our culture. First, it was typing, then links, and wider and wider content.

I heard about how young children learn to read. Then, they read to learn. In a sense, the wider community has been learning to use the web and now is "webbing" to learn. The web is changing our culture as much as writing did.

Enjoyed the videio
Must admit the first time around was a " what the ..." moment but 2nd time around I think it is trying to tell us that the web is just a tool to gather informa tion, views, thoights opinions new ideas from all parts of the world and hav it accessible in a easy format. Not so much the exclusive use of the IT nerds but everyone from a baby to a 101 year old
