Open Ed in Portland
Posted by karen on February 23, 2009 in Uncategorized
I was very gratified to have about 200 people attend my session on Open Ed at NCCE in Portland, OR. Clearly, there is a lot of interest in this important area.
As often the case at ed tech conferences, I had a well-informed and participative crowd, and I learned some thing too. Here are a few to share:
- OSAlt.com is a site that lets you search open source software programs by their commercial counterparts. This is a very useful companion to SourceForge. (I found some open source video editing programs on this site. I’ll be checking those out and reporting back.)
- Wisc-online is an OER repository from the state of Wisconsin.
- There is a Moodle plug-in for FreeMind.
Thanks for those useful tips and for your interest in Open Ed. Don’t forget to help spread the word.
