DESCRIPTION
In this short talk I will share the outcomes of an exciting free open short course myself Sue Beckingham and Chrissi Nerantzi developed called BYOD4Learning. Volunteer facilitators joined us and together with participants who were both educators and students, we learnt and reflected upon how using our own portable devices we could connect, communicate, curate, collaborate and create to enhance the learning experience. This unique online course has a Creative Commons licence to enable other educators to reuse and extend the learning opportunities it affords. We'd love to hear from anyone who would like to do this.

BYOD4Learning is a truly open course, or an ‘open magical box’ for those who don’t like the term ‘course’ very much,
for students and teachers who would like to develop their understanding,
knowledge and skills linked to using smart devices for learning and teaching
and use these more effectively, inclusively and creatively.
Nothing is locked away or private and you won’t even need to register.

achievement that are necessary to sustain a meaningful life.'(Professor Norman Jackson 2013)
