- Contact: Michelle Bachler [m.s.bachler at open dot ac dot uk]
* Team: Simon Buckingham Shum, Anna De Liddo, Michelle Bachler
* Hosts: Knowldge Media Institute, Open University, Milton Keynes, UK
* Proposed 'space' or theme: Peer Learning Lighthouse
* Status: to be confirmed
What do you want to achieve? (goal)
Our primary goal is to have people playing with Cohere, an open source Web Annotation and Knowldge mapping tool developed in KMi, by the Hypermedia Disocurse Team leaded by Simon Buchnigham Shum.
Viewed through the lens of contemporary social web tools, Cohere sits at the intersection of
- web annotation (e.g. Diigo; Sidewiki),
- social bookmarking (e.g. Delicious), and
- mindmapping (e.g. MindMeister; Bubbl)
It tries to combine the most of those technologies to provide online lifelong learners with a way to map their ideas while at the same time browsing and annotating OERs and other free Web resources.
- We aim to invite people to test and play with Cohere
- We aim to collect useful hints, suggestions and usability feedback from learning geeks and knowldge mapping amators
- We also hope to engage with developers and to discuss both the API and the Open Source code body as a whole.
Cohere is one of the learning innovation technology deveoped within the OLnet Project.
Who should come? How many? For how long? (audience)
- Web 2 and learning geeks interested to see how social bookmarking meets web annotation and knowledge mapping on the Web.
- Anyone interested in playing with web annotation and knowledge mapping tools
- Educators interested in how these tools can be used creatively and instructively in classrooms
- Everyone is welcome to hang out as long as they want
- We will run 2 hours per day, each day of the festival
What will they do when they get there? (activities)
What will you / they have at the end? (outputs)
