Cetis Relaunches |
As of 1st August, Cetis has relaunched as the Centre for Educational Technology, Interoperability and Standards. The “new” Cetis will be working with public and private sector clients who need our expert advice on matters of technology strategy and innovation, and standards and interoperability. To mark the relaunch we have a new web site which highlights our work and expertise.

There has been much discussion recently about Mozilla Open Badges, xAPI (Experience API, alias "Tin Can API") and LRMI, as new and interesting specifications to help bring standardization particularly into the world of technology and resources involved with people and their learning. They have all reached their "version 1" this year, along with InLOC.

For a long time I’ve been in awe of live bloggers like Nicola Osborne and Doug Clow and on several occasions benefitted from being able to point to the information they have captured in posts. This extends to events I’ve not been able to attend such as Doug’s extensive notes from LASI13.

The Learning Analytics Summer Institute (LASI) is taking place this week at Stanford University. Although I'm not one of the lucky few attending in person, Doug Clow (from the OU UK) is leading the live blogging brigade and I've been enjoying catching up with the sessions via all the posts, and looking forward to reading more.

Over the past four years I was part of the support team for the JISC Curriculum Design Programme. And I have to say it was one of the most fascinating "Jisc programme journeys" I've been on.

2nd July
Access control to Google Analytics data is very coarse. Via the web interface you can have full access or none at all. Given the growing interest in data driven decision making at all levels of the institution I thought it would be beneficial to demonstrate how Google Spreadsheets and Google Apps Script could be used to selectively distribute Google Analytics data.
