Web 2.0 – is it new?

FirstClass features
• Personal pages• Synchronous (Real-time chat , but also quasi-
synchronous (“Who’s online”)• Non-academic interactions – e.g. café
(students only)• Remind you of any modern systems?

Web 2.0 systems for “business”
• Blogs• Wikis• E-Portfolios = CVs (administration)
• Social networking? – Yes, in the sense of CMC – so not new
• Podcasting???– Evidence against, including from students

Blogs for business
• A one-many publishing format, with limited ability to comment
• Useful for project management in an “open” tradition
• See for example the UK Higher Education Academy blog systems to manage the Pathfinder Programme - http://elearning.heacademy.ac.uk/weblogs/pathfinder/
![Page 7: 1 Successful use of web 2.0 in professional development Paul Bacsich Matic Media Ltd, Sero Consulting Ltd and Re.ViCa (funded under EU LLL Programme)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649e045503460f94af00bb/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Wikis for business
• Gets one back to how the web used to be – anyone remember Microsoft’s IIS?
• Very useful for multiple authors collaborating when each has a defined focus and overlap is limited
• Examples – Re.ViCa (and there are others) - http://www.virtualcampuses.eu/index.php/Main_Page
![Page 8: 1 Successful use of web 2.0 in professional development Paul Bacsich Matic Media Ltd, Sero Consulting Ltd and Re.ViCa (funded under EU LLL Programme)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649e045503460f94af00bb/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Axiom (after Ehrmann)Axiom (after Ehrmann)
CPD should use worldware – tools for learning which are also tools for business
Supplementary: and ideally tools whose underlying intellectual processes are not new

Key Lessons LearnedKey Lessons Learned
Language is a key issue in development of Virtual Campus initiatives
HE institutions operating on multi campus ‐basis often more likely to adopt VC strategies
No common understanding about the term “Virtual Campus” or even “Virtual University”
Line between “Virtual Campus” and more traditional campus activities is blurred
![Page 20: 1 Successful use of web 2.0 in professional development Paul Bacsich Matic Media Ltd, Sero Consulting Ltd and Re.ViCa (funded under EU LLL Programme)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649e045503460f94af00bb/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Key Lessons LearnedKey Lessons Learned
Long term impact and sustainability of ‐national programmes and initiatives now questionable
In Europe, HE sector focus more on inclusion, lifelong learning and adult learning contributes to increase virtual learning opportunities
What lessons can be learned for CPD providers?

Key Lessons LearnedKey Lessons Learned
Not enough to be advanced and experienced – need to check beyond borders for strategic adaptation
Europe HEIs focus on content and service more then on technological facilities and platforms
International competition a driving force for change and innovation
Quality Assurance focus on traditional learning - lack of a QA system focused on virtual initiatives
For-Profit Virtual Campus initiatives opt for areas where there is a ready market for online courses
