Enhancing Fieldwork Learning is an
HEA funded project, which explores the way that technology can enhance pedagogy in fieldwork in particular. There is a focus on data collection, and the use of
mobile learning.
Last year, I went to the
2nd annual Showcase event of the project at Preston Montford Field Studies centre, and until recently I was due to attend the 3rd event at
Rhyd Y Creuau
I gave a presentation last time on our work with
Mission:Explore and the connections with ludic pedagogies...
This time I was going to talk about the
DISTANCE project that we have been working on.
However, instead of making my way to Snowdonia yesterday, I was teaching, and instead of presenting at the
FSC Centre today, I was marking Year 7 homework. All part of my transition back to teaching...
I've tweeted a few folks who are at the event, and from the sound of it there have been some excellent presentations and fieldwork excursions.
I've been following the
event hashtag too:
#eflshowcase
Follow the Twitter account too...
Some apps and other tools that I've been using for some years have been getting a mention, so good to know that I'm up to date here... Some further new ideas too. Some of the resources will also be shared on the website after the event hopefully...
