The topic for the video presentation is Open Source and Open Education. This has always been a passion, and so is a wonderful opportunity to bring all of my interests together. The speaker to be introduced is Jono Bacon, a leader in the Open Source software community. He is well known for building the community of developers at the Apache Foundation and writing the book Art of Community which is available for download as pdf under the Creative Commons license.
I could not get my storyboard to format properly within this blog so I have posted it on my wikspace of the same name. You can find it here: http://incitefultechnology.wikispaces.com/
The video will be created with almost all open source tools. The only non-open source tool will be Window 7 which is on the laptop.
The Storyboard was created in OpenOffice Write, sound will be captured using Audacity, video will be captured using my iPhone. I haven't chosen a video editor as yet, however it will be open source as well.

Hi Thomas,
ReplyDeleteI found your storyboard to be very thorough but I'm a bit confused about the specific topic. Is it open source in education or how open educations stems from open source?
By the way, I like the Art of Community book and have read it a couple of times.
Best,
April Hayman
Hi April,
ReplyDeleteIt is specifically about how the development of international open educational communities can learn from those who have "been there, done that."
