Voicethread Experiment

Today I test out the creativity of the blogosphere in a collaborative poetry writing exercise - if you find yourself with a few free minutes today why not add your thoughts on the image below in the form of a Haiku. All Haiku's will be moderated and won't appear immediately - go on have a go ( in whatever language you wish - I am looking forward to a range of accents and languages in order to show the colour of the world)



On the issue of globalising the new media experience, the UK based MediaSnackers, who travel the world giving kids a chance to let their voices be heard, were involved earlier this year with the 5th World Summit on Media for Children held in South Africa, watch their vodcast diary to see how they used their understanding and experience in training young people to be switched on Digital Journalists to give initial training to groups of youngsters who will go back and show their friends other students in Africa how to blog and make video presentations - Well done to DK and the MediaSnackers :)

Part 1 - A Video Diary ( the perils and problems of operating in a different country)

Part 2 A Video Diary ( The Solution and Resolution)

Many thanks for the feature - the whole African experience was an adventure with many challenges but the personal/professional gains/insights were priceless...

Thanks again.

A dear friend

It seems very apt to be writing this blog post in tribute to a dear, dear friend. The world has lost a true global educational  IT innovator...
