Australian ACE e-learning network

Great to be involved in a national e-learning network for Adult Community Education (ACE). Mary Hannan from Adult Learning Australia (ALA) has taken on the role of bringing together some e-learning people in the community sector.

Just got together with some people around the continent, in a meeting where

• Josie Rose told us all about the Victorian ACE e-mentor project, a regional approach that’s emerged from the ’07 Access ACE research trials;
• Georgina Nou (of Deadly Mob fame) showed us around Second Life, and inspired me to have another go at getting in and around;
• .. and i let people know about the Can You Hear Us? project.

Also we found out that

• funding for the national ACE e-learning network is now stable for the next 3 years (thanks Maria Amesz)
• Stuart Jones has been invited onto the eDayz reference group (South Australia) .. to help them get more ACE people at the conference. Go Stuart!

Plus: put this one in your diary  ;-]
