RE: [Fle3-users] Cormac's presentation and further collaboration

Hi Tarmo,

Thanks for your email. I would be delighted (honoured, even!) if you were to 
link to my presentation from the fle3 web site; as an advocate of Free/Open 
Source Software I consider the presentation to be in a similar vein (free and 
open). I've just realised that the ILTA site which contains the conference 
presentations is password protected (username: edtech2005 and password: 
edtech2005), but can be accessed from our own server at 
http://moodle.ait.ie/papers/edTech2005_presentation/index.html. This server 
will be unavailable temporarily (i.e. today) while I undertake a complete 
overhaul, and I'm hoping to get the domain name changed (later this month) so 
people will know it's not just a Moodle server. So, please do link to it, and 
I'll let you know if and when the URL will need to be updated.

Likewise, I would be pleased if these are found to be of use, although I see 
the greatest learning opportunity for students in the creation of 
discipline-specific Knowledge Type Sets (based of course on structured 
knowledge building using the existing knowledge type sets).

I am very interested in this. I would be very keen to get involved in research 
of this nature, particularly when the research complements my main role as a 
teacher. Sounds exciting!

Best Regards,
Cormac.

Hi Cormac,

I have to agree with Teemu, that you've really grasped the very
essence of progressive inquiry, which is a rare thing to see! I think
we would mutually benefit from further collaboration.

With your permission, I'd like to link to your presentation from
fle3.uiah.fi. And if your students have actually come up with working
specific knowledge type sets for software engineering, we would
definitely like to add them to our archive for others to use!

We're currently doing scientific research on Fle3 and progressive
inquiry, trying to get empirical validation on the method's and tool's
effectiveness. We could use more data (=Fle3 interaction matrices). If
you're interested, we could talk more on this.
