ID Conference Notes

The ID Conference got underway today in Saskatoon, where we spent the morning with Dave Jonassen on Problem Based Learning and problem solving issues, and the afternoon with Katy Campbell on e-Learning. Great way to spend a day. I've posted some skimpy notes at Rick's Café. There will also be some materials posted on the Campus Saskatchewan site soon, and I'll be sure to post the URL here when the time comes.
