Summary of findings from the 2007 Distance Education Survey Results

I just read this from Michael Feldstein's blog. His focus is on the LMS trends, related to Blackboard and Moodle, but he summarizes some important findings from the 2007 Distance Education Survey, which covers the impact of e-learning on community colleges. In his note, he also has the direct link to the Survey, which contains highly useful information... see it all here: Bad News for Blackboard, Good News for Moodle at e-Literate

A great reference site for web 2.0 technologies

I just received this from a colleague (Thanks, Ilene!), who found this gem within Stephen Downes OLDAILY.
Office 2.0 Database - My Office 2.0 Setup
You can visit the database in several ways: through categories, using the set-up where particular applications are set as the best options and then some alternatives are given, or just using the index. The site is clean and easy to navigate. There is also a way to submit an application that you might have used and is yet not part of the database. Signing up for the RSS feeds allows one to keep up with the news applications.
