From San Fernando, Trinidad and Trinidad, Taran Rampersad will honor us with compelling remarks. (more…)

Gavin Dudeney and Nickey Hockly will be our Keynote Speakers in the European Region. (more…)

Who do we try to feature during Global Learn Day?

We seek those who can favorably and convincingly provide positive answers to any one of these three questions:

1. What are you doing in your part of the world to significantly improve access to learning?

2. What are you doing in your part of the world that is truly novel and is most likely to substantially increase the motivation of your students to learn?

3. What are you doing in your part of the world to broadcast and publicize your work?

Every once in a great while we hit the jackpot and get someone who is doing all three.

Why do we do it?

Our hope is that showcasing those doing exceptional work, and helping them broadcast that work as widely as possible — that all of this will accelerate access to education — and, in the end, make for a safer, saner world. More? Please click here.

Post GLD Archive Update — Dr. Raman’s recording found here 

I am exceptionally pleased to confirm that Dr. T. V. Raman will be Global Learn Day Ten Keynoter, South Asian Region. He will be introduced by our Navigator and long time friend from that region, Dr. Arun Mehta.

It would be a disservice to Dr. Raman to make any attempt to summarize here the extent of his work in the field of access for those with disabilities. Please, please visit his home page, found here.

All by themselves, these two men, alone, could captivate our audience for the entire Voyage. Imagine how sparkling will be the conversation when you see the rest of the panelists Arun has gathered. More later.

Annette Stock, a gifted educator from Rotorua, North Island, New Zealand is expected to give one heckofa presentation about rap music. Did I say “rap”? Yes — and here’s a wee hint on why you should tune in for something truly unusual. (more…)

National Geographic, A wonderful source, including that for maps.

Another fine interactive map, provided by Intute

In the last few weeks I’ve been looking at Bloodhoundsearch Technologies, a brand new company that offers something we all need — a very personal search engine. It’s still got some bumps to flatten out, and it needs some “human hands” (for dummies) like me, but today we made our first stab at an e-learning portal where Bloodhound does all the work. Please visit this brand new Portal. And, come back often; I’ve got a very smart guy working on improving it as we speak.

The purpose of this post is to sketch some ideas about the design of a brand new blog site devoted exclusively for use immediately prior and during GLD Ten (more…)

One more new “world time clock” site  - and a good looking one at that.

This one called ClockLink. 

This post is for me and those doing the “mixing and matching”, the hard work of sifting, sorting, separating — all to make up a Timetable. (more…)
