Topic outline

 
As of 8 August 2008, the Networks Community forums are now archives and no new content will be added to this site. An email was sent out to all members via the forum "Final Posting".

For members looking for new communities of practice around specific interest areas, we suggest that they either conduct a search within edna Groups or visit the me.edu.au site (http://me.edu.au ) and search on their area of interest, then join a community there and ask about related forums and groups either within edna or on other platforms.

edublogs (http://edublogs.org ) is another excellent resource for finding people blogging about a specific area of interest. Use the tag cloud on the front page to find blog posts with those keywords and then make contact with the authors.

If you are unable to find a relevant community within edna Groups and feel you want to commit a few hours per week to running a Group, please feel free to fill out an application for a new Group. The link is accessible via the home page of the edna Groups web site – http://groups.edna.edu.au

To stay in touch with individual Group members, search on their names within the me.edu.au site and leave a message on their whiteboards.

NEW! Code of Conduct

Based on feedback from group members and existing edna Content Standards, here are the guidelines for participating in group activities.  These should look fairly familiar as they are standard codes of conduct for creating respectful, constructive spaces while protecting freedom of speech.

Content not fitting these standards will be removed and the contributor notified as to why.

Contributions should:
  • make a positive contribution to education and training
  • foster constructive exchanges.
Contributions should not:
  • use obscene language
  • harass, insult or attack others
  • be defamatory
  • involve or advocate illegal activities
  • violate human rights
  • contravene copyright laws
  • display offensive and pornographic images
  • harm or disturb users
  • have depictions that condone or incite violence, particularly sexual violence
  • portray any person in a demeaning manner.

edna registration may be revoked if an individual or group fails to:

  • meet the criteria for registration with the edna service
  • uphold the edna code of practice, or
  • meet edna content standards.

Learning in a changing world – Web 2.0 and beyond

Sign up here. 

The Knowledge Bank online conference this year is focused on Web 2.0 in education:  what it is, how it's being used today and it's potential to radically change education.

Full program details are now available.

Web 2.0 is not new – but what might happen to teachers and learners as it becomes mainstream?  We'll look at the concepts and see Web 2.0 in practice over the six sessions of the conference

"Stepping into History: Exploring the Past through Virtual Worlds"

Alliance Library System, in cooperation with LearningTimes, will offer a one-day online conference exploring the possibilities of using virtual worlds to teach history and to promote its appreciation. The conference - entitled "Stepping into History: Exploring the Past through Virtual Worlds" - will be held entirely in the virtual world of Second Life on June 10, 2008. "In-World" online attendance at the conference is limited to 60 participants, however you may also choose to attend via the virtual classroom simulcast.

The cost is $45 USD per person. Registration is available at the website:
