Aus-e-learning
Last year, Jeff Goldman published Free US History eLearning in honour of Independence Day.
I thought it was such a wonderful idea, I have decided to do something similar in honour of Australia Day.

Love the list Ryan! Sitting in a conference in London on Australia Day- this allowed me to easily share some of Australia with our european friends.
Maybe this could be included somewhere.
BTW- did I see your name on an influential list recently?
Cheers

Crikey, that ad sets us back 40 years… literally!
So you’re sitting in a conference in London on Australia Day? Shouldn’t you be at The Church? ;o)
And I suppose you’re referring to Asia-Pacific’s list of e-learning “movers and shakers”. Haha, yes, there’s something to be said for being top of mind.
