VIDEO FOR EDUCATION presents work from the DIVERSE (Disseminating Innovative Video Educational Resources for Students Everywhere) network, based on selected papers from the DIVERSE Conferences 2001-2006. Three themes are covered surrounding work in: Using Video to Promote Reflective Learning, Using Online Conferencing in Education and Disseminating Video Recordings of Lectures within Institutions. Collating and producing this material allows DIVERSE to capture the knowledge of its community from what has so far been a very practically oriented event. The book is jointly produced with the ALT (The Association for Learning Technology). For ALT, this publication will help its members to inform themselves about an area that has potential for improving or diversifying practitioner practice in e-learning, and to support those preparing for the Certified Member of ALT (CMALT) accreditation.
In April 2003, The Association for Learning Technology (ALT) celebrated its tenth anniversary and this book has been produced in order to commemorate this landmark achievement. It represents a collaboration between key members of ALT and members of ALTs' sister organisations: SURF in Holland and ASCILITE in Australia. The aims of the book are to use the topic of "institutional implementation" to present a review of the impact of learning technology on tertiary education over the past few years; and to highlight and discuss key changes and developments that are shaping present and future activities and consider the implications for individual enthusiasts who work in the field of learning technology. The book outlines the context in which individual enthusiasts have operated and institutional implementation has occurred over the last ten years. Four key themes are highlighted throughout the book: * the individual enthusiast and their role in institutional implementation; * the institutional enthusiast and their role in local and global e-learning initiatives; * finding the evidence to justify enthusiasm and underpin implementation; * reinventing the individual enthusiast.
