Lernid @ Ubuntu Open Week

Ubuntu Open Week is the time when the long-distance learning application Lernid comes to the fore. Today I attended three sessions, the first was the tail end of a discussion on translating Ubuntu. Next up was how to help the Ubuntu Community, followed by an excellent Inkscape for beginners tutorial from DoctorMo in which I discovered the joys of drag 'n drop in a graphic application which is steadily developing into a power package. Just having some online interaction, with a mentor putting up pages does wonders for learning and I can see lernid being used in other pedogological /educational situations.
