Post: 21century network, webinars and learning

Hi Francis.

Following our discussion this morning, about 21st Century Network Webinars and ideas for future Internet enabled learning, here are some links to what we mentioned regarding Dadamac. Obvioulsy I'm not expecting you to read them all in detail. However, dipping into them will give some of the additional background you asked for, and can provide some jumping off points for our next discussion.

Nikki blogs about our meetings afterwards at www.dadamac.net. These are her recent blog posts:

John Dada - my Dadamac colleague - http://www.dadamac.net/about/john
Fantsuam Foundation - 5 minute video - Dadamac's sister organisation (Johns' position there is voluntary) -
Zittnet - The rural connectivity that enables us to collaborate - http://www.dadamac.net/projects/rural-connectivity

I hope this puts what we discussed on a firmer foundation, and I look forward to continuing our exploration of overlapping interests.
