Digital Learning Resources Conference

Date: 19/03/2009

From simple sound bites to sophisticated 3D imaging technology, New Zealand educators are increasingly using digital and web-based resources to support learning.

A day in the life of a digital learning resource brings together experts and practitioners from all areas of this field to explore the latest and best practice in using and reusing these instructional tools.

Case studies, demonstrations of new tools and technology, and thought-provoking discussions on the merits of the tried and true versus the wholly innovative will inspire and stimulate attendees.
