Transforming the consumption of education

If you would like to publish your course materials on the Internet, but have no access to a virtual learning environment, then Nixty.com, with a promotion handle of ‘Empowering Education for Everyone’, could very likely be just the service that you are looking for. I registered as a user, had a good look around the facilities and the look and feel are good. Once in, you will find there are a whole range of courses already available many of them free. There is a course manager that allows you to set-up and manage your courses, where you can embed existing PowerPoint’s, Word files and PDF’s, setup quizzes, forums etc. In fact rather than me telling you about Nixty here is a link to setting up a lesson and another on using Nixty’s ePortfolio. In these days of inclusion and accessibility I am getting the feeling that the Nixty approach could be the start of something big. If you have used Nixty or have any views, then please feel free to post a comment.
