This year, teachers and learners from 5 different ACE organisations explored a range of innovative learning activities using audio technologies. Adult learners from community classes in Reservoir, Carlton, Glenroy, Coburg and Ferntree Gully were involved. Things they did include:

make digital stories and films,
connect in live communication between different sites,
listen to audio versions of printed stories,
watch online video for language learning .. and much more.

In early December, project leader Michael Chalk presented at Converge – the Victorian e-learning conference. Here are the slides and voiceover from the session (10 minutes). You can read more about the classroom research on the project site, at canuhearus.acfe.vic.edu.au
