A presentation on using social software to develop Personal Learning Environments

Did a presentation last thursday at the German Hochshultage 2006 conference. My presentation was entitled "Pedagogies, content enrichment and social software - challenges for European vocational education and training".

I have done a number of this type of presentation lately - basically looking at the interface between new pedagogies for ICT based learning and the use of social software. I am especially excited about how we can use social software and Web 2 micro formats to develop lightweight and flexible Personal Learning Environments (much more on this in next few weeks).

These presentations are quite difficult in that most of the audiences have only a limited understanding of technology developments. So it is a question of how to make it simple without being patronizing. I think I about got it right this time.

The presentation is attached below - sadly I forgot to bring a microphone so no audio - but will remember in the future.
