I am pleased to announce a new experiment at e-Literate. Since I am falling ever further behind in blogging about the all the interesting stuff I come across, I have decided to invite other people who are smarter and more interesting than me to guest blog here periodically.
My first guest blogger will be Stephen J. Marshall, the Acting Director of the University Teaching Development Centre at Victoria University of Wellington in New Zealand. Ken Udas has been singing Stephen’s praises for quite some time now, and I finally got to meet him and hear him talk about his e-Learning Maturity Model at FIT not too long ago. It’s fascinating stuff; one of the most robust organizational capability assessments for e-Learning that I’ve seen while still managing to remain lightweight enough to be practical. I have invited Stephen to blog about eMM here, along with anything else that strikes his fancy. (If we’re lucky, maybe he’ll share some of his interesting perspective on e-Learning standards, for example.)
Stephen will be blogging here over the next three weeks. Since I will also continue blogging during that time period, I have asked Stephen to make obvious which posts are his. Keep an eye out for them; I’m sure they’ll be good stuff.
Michael, this is a good idea. Stephen, thanks for sharing this material on EMM. I’ve been meaning to follow up on this since our meeting in New York.
