ESOL MP3

Though I have been doing lots of other stuff recently (MoLeNET mentoring stuff, RSC SW Web 2.0 event, meeting with University of Bath) I have managed to squeeze in a fair bit of Glossy project work.

I have been checking how a range of content works on a variety of devices, so we can provide online advice to learners on what works on what.

Others in the college have also been working hard.

Andy (one of our Advanced Practitioners) has been working hard on creating some audio recordings (mp3 format) for ESOL which sound really nice and look like will be useful. Learners can download the mp3 from the college VLE and upload onto a mobile devices of their own, or even burn to CD to listen to in the car or at home.

Alan has been working hard on podcast tools and creation, as well as attending a fair amount of training that MoLeNET has put on – he’s off for another MoLeNET event on Monday to look at MyLearning, which could prove useful for our GPS PDAs we have.
