• Questions about informal learning and the need for a global brain
  
  is good for learning and for research ' disorientation and cognitive overload are the principal obstacles of self-regulated learning in technology-enhanced learning. Informal learning can only be done within the constraints of the knowledge it is accessing. With informal learning you look at/find static knowledge and you construct your own knowledge in a dynamic way. Let me take you on a quest for learning affordance s and on a loop in which I will suggest that future informal learning will not differ from 19 th century teacher top-down learning. Two topics which I find

• Bogus research data on effectiveness of learning methods
  
  Will Thalheimer who has a great blog with research-based commentary on learning and performance got some mails out on this topic and … those mails surely got me gasping for air. In a previous presentation I have mentioned William Glasser and I put in statistics that I thought he used to divide learning methods. One of his remarks is so simple and true: “Everyone who uses a citation to make a point (or draw a conclusion) ought to check the citation.� One thing is for sure his comments are well constructed with strong arguments and data. Jay Cross got me straight on fraudulent information concerning the effectiveness of learning methods.

• The ethics of research in low resource areas
  
  So who does benefit from using new technologies and innovations, if not the learners for whom they are constructed or produced? Well, this question is raised by the article I mentioned and which was selected as a winner of a Lancet / Global Forum for Health Research competition to find the best ideas on innovation for health (their were 8 winners, see the picture). In the article of Rafael Van den Bergh , PhD student at the ITM (promoter: Guido Focusing on a winning article by medical colleague Rafael Van den Bergh (PhD student at the Institute of Tropical Medicine in Antwerp and VUB), I will focus on the ethical part of innovation for eLearning projects.

• Mobile Augmented Reality – A Brief Overview
  
  Augmented reality (AR) is a field of computer research which deals with the combination of real-world and computer-generated data (virtual reality), where computer graphics objects are blended into real footage in real time. At present, most AR research is concerned with the use of live video imagery which is digitally processed and “augmented” by the addition of computer-generated graphics.   The integration of innovative technology in learning has always been a goal of educators. In the past two decades, we’ve seen advances in learning technology that allow

• Andy Ramsden: Are QR Codes the Future of Mobile Learning?
  
  I’ve been researching the use of 2D barcodes (and particularly QR Codes) in education for over two years now.  Text-recognition will also be far more flexible than QR Codes; potentially, semantic constructs could be used to allow the recognition of an infinite variety of different types of data, the same way that OCR currently works on desktop computers. I posted the following response to Andy Ramsden’s blog post on this topic:   I’ve been very interested in their use in education as I immediately recognised their power for linking situated learning

• my journey into social media and why I became an evangelist
  
  First a quick profile : Inge de Waard , working as eLearning coordinator and researcher at the Institute of Tropical Medicine in Antwerp, Belgium. At a certain point I believed some research that I was reading, it was not much, just a small slide that I picked up and that was used by a couple of renowned researchers. First of all even if I read research of renowned researchers I am double checking it now more then ever, Karyn Romeis is working on a dissertation exploring the impact of the use of social media on the professional practice of learning professionals.
