Who, or what, are User 2.0? How are web2.0 technologies impacting on learners, teachers and institutions? How are users shaping the technologies? This conference will focus on the interactions between different users and web2.0 technologies.

The conference is about sharing our stories with other projects, drawing on their experience and reflecting on what we have learn.

A three day online conference looking at cutting edge developments and practice under the banner of ‘Digital Communities and Digital Identities’, taking place on the 23rd, 24th, and 25th of April.

As well as housing conference support and related materials, we will be using this Moodle space to run a Dragon’s Den, which will be open from Monday 21 April to Friday 2 May. Following the community invitation for small benefits realisation projects, members will be able to submit draft ideas to a Dragon’s Den and receive feedback and comments from the resident Dragons.

Attendees are also invited to contribute to Self Identity in the e-World, a discussion lead by John Sanders.

This is a closed area to support project and programme evaluation activities. For access to community information about the programme evaluation please visit the evaluation blog at Emerge.

Growing and sustaining our community through a research-led approach

The aims of this event are to: consolidate and celebrate the development and vibrancy of the Emerge community; identify and develop shared interests; to plan, as a whole community, our future direction and goals.

The aims of the online activity days are for individuals, teams, groups and clusters to share ideas, expertise and expectations, to engage with the Users and Innovation Development Model (UIDM) processes and project development process and success criteria, and to develop Community Generated Activities: online, offline and blended.

This is a course/environment where new users can learn and experiment Moodle environments and for experienced users to test the use of new installed plug-ins, filters, design, etc.
