Tomorrow we shall be presenting our proposal details to partner colleges for the JISC bid along the lines of ‘access to online content, and tools to support collaborative working and personalised learning experiences’. The network team have been working hard getting my request for streaming to work and this afternoon I saw it in action. If you are interested in looking in on the event, then click herebetween 2 and 5 gmt. If you do manage to view the webcast I would be interested in any feedback to this blog, for now I have a few finishing touches to the presentations to get on with, so I’ll sign off.
