We are pleased to announce that the special issue “Towards eLearning 2.0 University” has been published in Interactive Learning Environments, Volume 18, Issue 3 September 2010. The special issue is dedicated to the question of how universities should integrate Web 2.0 technologies and tools into educational and institutional practices. This question is driven by the assumption that eLearning 2.0, as this integration is called, will foster the idea of placing the learner in the centre of a more social, personal and flexible learning process.

Hoi allemaal,

Doordat we nu gebruik maken van de betalende dienst, zijn de reclames in de rechterkolom - gelukkig - verdwenen, en kregen we wat ruimte om de hoofdpagina anders in te richten.
Olga en ik hebben dat vanmiddag even gedaan.
