Now let’s get to work !
What is RSS?
RSS-feedreader
Who uses RSS? Which feedreader? http://www.google.com/ig/
Go to iGoogle: http://www.google.com/ig/ Play around a bit, add content Go to the website of a newspaper, and look for
the RSS logo. Copy the URL of the rss feed Paste it into iGoogle (add rss feed)
Finally
Educational institutions will probably end up somewhere in the middle - eLearning 1.5
Why? Need certain level of control and local data /
information for quality and certification reasons Fear of chaos
If weare going
in the
wrong
direction,technologywill get us
there FASTER!
