 My name is Mira Vogle, I work in e-learning environments in University College London and I'm an officer in the Ault MOOC Special Interest Group. My name is James Little, I work at the University of Leeds in the Staff and Development department and I'm the Ault Signal Committee member. Hi my name's Fiona Harvey, I work for the centre for innovation in technology and education in The University Southampton, and I'm the chair of the Ault MOOC SIG. Hi, I'm Helen Whitehead, I'm a learning technologist in the central learning technology section at the University of Nottingham, and I'm an art Moocig committee member. Okay, so we've just had the launch of the alt Moocig, and I think it went really well, but I think it would be a good idea if we just had a chat about what it was that we found most interesting and what we took away from that. Yes, it was really helpful having some very seasoned alt members there, some quite senior ones, and I think what I took away from it was the necessity of joining up with existing initiatives. So we had Paul Baxiwch, who has been to do with the Open Education SIG for a while, talking about how we need to gather our resources together. At the moment they're siloed off, they've been using Mendeley, we're interested in using Zatera, so we need to bring things together. And Seb Shmuller was talking about the necessity of bringing together discussions that have come up on the alt email list and bringing them into the newsletter. I think the key thing really is the idea that we're trying to be open and collaborative in terms of the group approach, and what we're hoping to do by having a blog on a WordPress site, and using multiple things like the Igo or Zatero, and scoop it to bring things together so that however people want to contribute, and kind of whatever their interests is like a centralized space that we're all trying to make sense of what's going on and kind of formulating responses to them. I think I was really pleased about how many people came along, it was really well attended, it was very good. And also about the nature of the way they really took into the spirit of sitting down and thinking about the kind of themes that they'd be interested in blogging about. And so really being an active member of the SIG as opposed to just listening to us, so I think that works really well. And also the idea about looking at FE as well, the other sectors of education, but like you said working with the other SIGs, I think that's really important. And communication is always my big thing, so I really am keen to get all that going that we're all talking to each other all the time and sharing, that's really important. Yes, we had an interesting discussion and we all broke into groups and we had an interesting discussion and it made me realise that there are a number of perspectives on MOOCs, sort of teacher, learner, which is one of my perspectives as I'm also a member of LISIG, which will also work with the old MOOC SIG, the policy angle and the learning technologist angle, and while we're mostly learning technologists and we're going to share best practice, we also, perhaps the people at the sharp end, we need to be aware of what's going on. We need to read the government report that's coming out next week, we need to make a response to it, and we need to advise other people perhaps in our universities should they ask us by being fully aware of what's going on. I just think it's very exciting and very pleased to be part of it. It's great fun, it's brilliant people. It's good fun, you like a party. It's great, thank you.
