Two educational cultures separated by different TLAs (Three Letter Acronyms)! I prefer CMS = Content Management System as in (heaven help us) MS Sharepoint. I mention this because our university has developed a new Virtual Learning Environment using…

Hi Dwayne, have you heard of any research (or results of) thats been done with the iPad yet? I've been using it for a few months now and it's become a close friend and ally at work and at home. We also have a few members of staff trialing…

I really hope that we start to see some genuine and significant competition for the iPad. This will not only force apple to NOT sit back and relax but force them to continue to innovate. I have been using the iPad on a recen trip and the large…
