The Digital Learning Camp will provide inspiration and practical guidance for
anyone working on digital education projects within the heritage and cultural
sectors. Led by My Learning and Leeds Museums and Galleries, and supported by
DLNet and CapeUK, the event is aimed at those working on established projects or
anyone wanting to find out more about digital learning.
The focus of this packed day of workshops and short talks is on techniques and
skills with a practical application, which attendees can apply to their own
projects. Here's a taster of the sort of thing we'll be offering on the day:
* Find out what developers need to establish a good digital learning project and
what is feasible for different budgets
* Discover the qualities funders are looking for in digital learning projects
* Ideas and practical applications for free or low-cost DIY digital learning
tools
* Develop your evaluation techniques and find out how to conduct a teacher focus
group
* Honest appraisals of successes and problems in recent digital learning
projects
* Ask an expert panel of teachers, from various key stages and specialising in
different subjects, questions about their requirements for digital learning
resources
