[Sheflug] Internet Radio (Jono Bacon) / Open Source for Education Conference
Those of you who had intended to come to the Internet Radio talk by Jono Bacon
will be delighted to know that this has now been rearranged for Wednesday 15
June at the Holiday Inn (Royal Victoria) in Sheffield. This is billed as the
IEE John Freeman Memorial Lecture. John was a past chairman of the IEE
Sheffield Centre and a strong supporter of IEE younger members' activities.
--------------------
Between 20th and 24th June Sheffield will host a major international
e-learning technology conference called Alt-i-Lab. To coincide with this
event, on Friday 24th June the d-SY FLOSS Special Interest Group have
organised a panel of speakers from the UK, USA and Europe to address wider
issues of the use of Open Source Software in Education, including the
recently published BECTa report. This full day event called Open Source For
Education will be held in the Holiday Inn (Royal Victoria) Sheffield - the
same venue as Alt-i-lab.
-----------------------
Registration for the 15th and 24th June events is free and refreshments will
be provided.
Full details of these and other events are available on the Digital South
Yorkshire web site at http://www.digitalsy.org.uk/future-events.html

Over the next few weeks we will be starting to put together a programme of
FLOSS related events for the period September through June next year. This
will include both short evening talks in addition to half / full day
workshops & conferences. If you have any burning topics which you would like
to see covered then please drop me a reply.
