Location, Location, Location: A trip to the Durham Blackboard Users’ Conference 2011

LTE Online

This year’s conference was themed “Location, Location, Location” – a phrase that made a lot more sense to me once someone explained that it is also a reference to a popular televisual programme (m’lud). But enough of my inadequate grasp of Popular Culture – what sort of ideas does this expression encompass?

As you might have guessed, there was exploration of the idea that E-learning can overcome geographical and temporal constraints on learning – i.e. no longer having to be at a specific place (say a Lecture Theatre) at a specific time (say 9am on a Monday) in order to “learn”.
