Well, now that they discharged X from the Home for the Temporarily Disgruntled, it's time to catch up a bit. Here's some breaking news and random thoughts:
- Carey Hatch has been named Interim Director of SLN. Carey brings years of coalition building experience, particularly regarding the creation of SUNYConnect. Welcome aboard, Carey!
- Ken Udas has announced his departure to assume a leadership role with Penn State's World Campus Online distance learning initiative. X has no doubt that SLN's loss will be the Nittany Lions' gain. You know, as an SU alumn I can't stand losing ANYTHING to Penn State...
- X's mild mannered alter ego will be presenting at the SLOAN-C International Conference on Asynchronous Learnining Networks this fall with his esteemed colleagues on the blended learning pilot program in process at our institution.
- SUNY Cortland joins the iTunes bandwagon - see e-literati Alex Reid's thoughts on integrating podcasting into his course. Note Alex's thoughts on coursecasting and the dialog that ensues in the comments section.
