Learning2 Europe – Riki Kochar

Learning2 is an innovative, engaging conference with a focus on leveraging technology to support learning. Since it’s inception in 2007, Learning2 is considered to be one of the leading annual educational technology conferences internationally. 

I attended several inspiring sessions. In the ‘Maker your own Learning’ session, we tinkered and built our designs, tackled frustrations and created an artifact. We  hacked our conference badge with paper circuitry and led stickers, hooking up Makey Makey, synthesiser, Arduino lighting and Raspberry Pi to make things blink and more In ‘Making Thinking Visible Using Technology’ we explored different technologies that help capture evidence of student learning. The emphasis was on students using the tools to create to demonstrate learning. L2 was was a rich learning experience!
