In my research for my final project, I spoke to someone in the industry that said I should share this information with my class:
Society for Applied Learning Technology
Specfically, that there is a New Learning Technologies Conference
in Orlando, Florida
March 3-5, 2010
Among the people they suggest should attend are:
School And University Professionals Involved In Technology-Based Instruction Delivery Systems For Education
The topics included in the conference schedule are:
Gaming & Simulation
Compliance
Design
e-Learning
Training
Virtual Worlds
Mobile Learning
Knowledge Management
Social Networks & Web 2.0
Mobile Learning
New Business Technologies
I think that these topics relate to our module themes and team presentations and also to the topics covered in the other MET courses that our classmates might be enrolled in.
The person I spoke to is involved in Gaming and Simulation and Virtual Training, and mentioned the Department of Defence training videos that we were introduced to in the Module 9 presentation on Serious Games.
Hope that this link is interesting / useful for some of you.
