Malini Gulati (London Inst. of Education) interviews Robert O'Toole (Warwick)


Malini Gulati of the Institute of Education, London interviews Robert O'Toole about Web 2.0 technologies, learning spaces, digital literacy and many other issues.

I've been helping Malini with her research into the use of Web 2.0 technologies in HE teaching and learning. She's already coming up with some very interesting results, very relevant to what we are doing here at Warwick and elsewhere.

Conjectures

Use What Is Philosophy? as a basis for conjecture 1, modifying it to "intellectual activity consists of a set of radically distinct and interdependent modes of thinking-acting".

Think about analysis, synthesis, discipline specific heuristics, generic heuristics, non-formal heuristics.

Use the case of the Klu-Klux Clan supporting history student as a case study!
