NET*Working 2004 National Conference

Wendy and I are doing an online presentation showcasing our Learnscope project for ANTA's annual NET*Working 2004 National Conference - http://www.flexiblelearning.net.au/nw2004/.

If you would like to attend this week-long virtual event there are logins available for participants in our project. Contact either myself or Wendy for details.

As part of the conference, there are also a "real space" local events being held at Ultimo campus on the Tuesday 9th November from 12.30pm - 6.00pm, and at Loftus campus on Thursday 11th November from 9.30am - 2.00pm.

Wendy and I will be giving a presentation on blogging at the Ultimo event at 3.40pm in Library DG53 followed by a hands-on session from 4.00pm to 4.40pm in Library DG52.

We would love it if you could come along to the hands-on and help participants set up their own blog.

It's free to attend and, although the organisers ask you to register so they can keep track of numbers, you can just turn up on the day.
