My Mindless Ramblings
Well I’ve just finished presenting by project. A few technical difficulties andsome glitches but thank god it is over.
Day two of converge. Missed the morning session as I was stuck in my hotel room fixing up my presentation as I’ve been put in a normal classroom instead of a computer lab, so I’ve been modifying it at the last minute. Grrrrr
Sue Waters gave a fantastic presentation on twitter and other social tools.
Presented by the Aspin Group.
Looked at the next generation of learners and integrating gaming onto the learning environment.
They demonstrated that gaming is amazingly on the increase and that every home has at least one type of gaming consoles.
Surprisingly females have a 42% share in who plays games.
How can games be integrated into elearning?
Showed a demonstration of a 3D Interactive Environment which uses photts and allows users to navigate around the room.
He talked about some programs used to create 3D programs such as the open source software Blender as well as the popular Adobe Flash.
Here I am sitting on the train heading into Melbourne city on my way to converge. I am a bit nervous about presenting as this will be my first presentation and honestly I don’t think picturing the audience in their underwear will work.
I will be live blogging throughout the conference and you can keep up to date via twitter.
