Seminars on drupal, wikis, content management?
Hi, Does anyone happen to know of any seminars or courses being held over the summer (or any other time for that matter) that focus on wikis, drupal, or content management, and that have an educational orientation? I'm studying the educational uses of content management systems like wikis and drupal, but I'm also tying to gain a better understanding of how to make them work for the department I'm in. Thanks, Chris Werry San Diego State University
maybe something like this? contact jhuns@vt.edu for more information. 17 July 2007: WIKI RESEARCH WORKSHOP CSCL2007 RUTGERS STATE UNIVERSITY, NEW JERSEY. WORKSHOP TITLE: EMERGING ISSUES IN WIKI RESEARCH: KNOWLEDGE ADVANCEMENT AND DESIGN Aims & Objectives: Wiki technology is increasingly explored as a means of supporting collaborative learning activities. The flexibility of wikis' open architecture, the social and democratic aspects of authoring shared spaces and texts, and the potential to expand functionalities through the design of metadata holds enormous appeal for schools, universities, museums, workplaces and virtual communities. The aim of this workshop is to identify emerging issues and perspectives in CSCL research that are central to the development and design of wiki technology as a platform for knowledge advancement. --e On Fri, 13 Apr 2007, Chris Werry wrote:

Hi, I'm co-organising an event on wikis in Montréal on 18-19-20th may 2007. http://www.rocococamp.info/ It's the third edition of the RecentChangesCamp, which took place twice in Portland Oregon. The Montréal (bilingual) edition has been untitled Rococo. (Rencontre sur la Collaboration, la Créativité et l'Autogestion = Meetings on Collaboration, Creativity and SelfManagement). Wikis will be central, but the event is also gathering people interested in collaboration practices at large (researchers, artiste, video, geeks...) It's a BarCamp (don't know if you are familiar with it if not, see http://barcamp.org/) organised with the OpenSpace Technology (methodology that help having a User Generated Conference). We are waiting for people from different background, some have been using and stuying Wikis in education(1). A bar camp allows participants to suggest their own session, so we could have one or more session on wiki in education. I'm personnaly interested in this subject. The 2 past RCC meetings allowed us to create 6 communities on the web...so you could also take this as a possibility to get on practice/knowledge communities. (1) see for exemple : - http://www.rocococamp.info/StewartMader author of Using Wiki in Education http://www.ikiw.org/ - http://www.rocococamp.info/Alain_Désilets (wikis in primary school) - http://www.rocococamp.info/PierreLeonardHarvey (wikis in distance-teaching) Everybody with an interest in the field is welcome. + it's free. If you want to participate, write your name on the list http://www.rocococamp.info/Participants Anne Goldenberg ps : // Drupal Koumbit is one organisation that is going to participate to this event. http://koumbit.org/ This OBNL is specialised with Drupal and has organised several Drupal meet up. http://groups.drupal.org/montreal-quebec They also have some contracts on Drupal for education, so you might have some interesting exchange with them.
