DME Seminar Series (February 2006)
In the UIC Department of Medical Education's February 2006 monthly seminar, I had the opportunity to talk with my colleagues at UIC and others who joined us online about some of the new Web tools educators are using to communicate and collaborate with learners in their online and face-to-face courses. Many of us have generally thought of these tools as social software best suited for entertainment or keeping up with friends, but have not really considered the possibilities they offer for learning communities. While I spent most of my time just introducing the tools for those who were unfamiliar with them, the fun part of the seminar was hearing some of the interesting ideas from my colleagues on how they might be used in the classroom.
