Tech Soup's Community Manager, Susan Tenby, let me know about an interesting online event, that you all may want to know about, The New Media Consortium's Online Conference on Personal Broadcasting April 26-27, 2006.
The New Media Consortium (NMC) is an international 501(c)3 not-for-profit consortium of nearly 200 leading colleges, universities, museums, corporations, and other learning-focused organizations dedicated to the exploration and use of new media and new technologies.
Here are some of the topics they'll be covering:
- Creating podcasts and vlog content
- Strategies for incorporating personal broadcasting into courses and institutional websites
- Pedagogical applications (and implications)
- Exploration of differences between and potential uses of vlogging and podcasting
- Open-source tools
- Incorporation of learning objects within games or vice versa
- Implications for multimedia and web design
