Top 10 etools for learning professionals
My Top 10 Tools list is now online at Jane Hart's Centre for Learning & Performance Technologies http://c4lpt.co.uk/recommended/helenwhitehead.html
It's fascinating reading the 'final' compiled version of the top 100 tools chosen by 223 learning professionals. Delicious social bookmarking comes top by a long way. It's somewhat encouraging that several of mine are also chosen by others, but also that I have one or two that I've discovered for myself...Labels: e-learning tools, learning technologies, social bookmarking, tools

eXe - for creating elearning NOTan .exe. file!
The project eXe has been brought to my attention. A New Zealand-based open source authoring application, it aims to assist teachers and academics in the publishing of web content without the need to become proficient in HTML or XML markup. Resources authored in eXe can be exported in IMS Content Package, SCORM 1.2, or IMS Common Cartridge formats or as simple self-contained web pages. Obviously an alternative to CouseLab which I looked at last week.
I'm testing out both to compare, and will report back in due course (though don't hold your breath as I'm pretty busy and will have to spread this research over some time!)Labels: e-learning, e-learning tools, elearning, elearning tools, eXe, learning technologies, tools

Colour picking
Here's an interesting widget that helps you pick co-ordinating colours - particularly good for designing webpages, but also good for colours of any kind!
Note: it doesn't work in Internet Explorer, so you will need Firefox to use it properly, I'm afraid.Labels: colour, tools, web design
