They did but it never took for various reasons one of those as I understand was the lack of expertise within the org. Russ

Would be its a usa project not a uk project got nothing to do with the uk. What I am saying is pearson needed to get expertise into its org so that it can be created so buying fronter very smart move as they have expertise to create it. Also at same time gives them foothold in the uk LP market as fronter got large share of uk market. Russ

Going to remind them in future to put edugeek.net not just edugeek as hopefully something going in next months issue. Russ

Just a small mention in the byline for edugeek Technology & Learning - March 2009 - (16) Russ

Saw that it was quick way for pearson to get into the lp market in the uk but it certainly helps bring into org staff needed for Project Tapestry. Pearson Tapestry Russ

Thanks Russ

I will my question here the charge for the service per pupil does that come out of capitation. Russ

Am I right in thinking to use 3D DLP HDTV You need following... • DLP TV thats is 3D compatible. • DLP LCD 3D Glasses & IR emitter • A 3D source such a computer • If using a computer then you need 3D software that will send the 3D data to your TV for example the TriDef software that is bundled with such kits as Samsung 3D Kit - SSG1000 or a 3D driver from iZ3D to use with games iZ3D - First 3D monitor for Gamers •

Don't even get me started on that one I was in second session of that. In my view talked about ip rules for way to long and when it got to network security just before he ran out of time I wasn't impressed was on about the same tied thing that we need to move away from not reinforce. Russ

Don't worry little mis it is just that gibbo has never meet you

Can I ask you lot to calm down slightly and for know let things lay this for various reasons but at moment you are hurting your argument more than you are helping it. Russ

Probably should make clear that someone said it to the director of embc not other way around... As said in other thread got good mention from Mike so welcome to anyone who joined us from embc conference.

updated the link http://www.eventelephant.com/edugeekconferencemay2009

Just a quick thank you to embc find the day very useful also edugeek got mentioned several times in number of sessions. Once by director of embc in his session to everyone as example of good practice of building a community (video to come soon). Russ

Sorry to create vampire thread... We are looking to buy some for pe department any updates on what people using etc. Russ

Also you can use this with any type of IE whiteboard at all.. Russ

ok how long has that sims report been in the wat tool sure wasn't there other day anyway there is sims rep def file on lefthand menu at the bottom.

Problem with any opensource mis is keeping up with the ever changing targets that government set on mis systems. So unless your it staff include a coder is it risky option as you can't say to government/la we not sending you the census as our system doesn't support it. A opensource mis system will work only if some org takes its and hires fulltime developers and someone with the business knowledge to deal with the goverment side of things. Russ

As title says if he can you give me a pm Russ

Let me know if want some advice on hotels etc Russ

I do not mean that we should lie about it the facts but I do think you will find they stand up. What I am saying is the the use of facts is besides point the message behind it is important part. As for jobs yes your right to certain degree but that 20 years ago it was to lesser degree. Jobs we have today (forgot about I.T specific jobs) are same apart from odd one. The point video is making is that most jobs in future do not exist currently. It goes back to point of and I hate term a phrase as it has negative view of Learning to Learn and becoming Life Long Learners (has anyone got house yet) so that young people can cope with the changing world which they will take part in. Russ

Wow alright for some poshest hotel in town hey... You know you will be McDonalds down the road before the night is done. My work is about two mins walk from it. Ok how about small meetup at local pub on Monday afternoon (will meet at a pub in town that has free wi-fi as well) for those around and then proper meetup after event on the Tuesday. Russ Russ

What days are people coming down (anyone around Monday afternoon) As maybe look to do a bit of edugeek get together for those who around at local pub. Russ
