On April 6th, 2006, professor César Córcoles and me gave a seminar entitled Web 2.0 and diffusion of research (revisited and improved).
Now, the review of the seminar has been published in IDP review. The abstract in English goes:
Review of the seminar held in April 2006 -within the framework of the UOC’s UNESCO e-Learning Chair- on the so-called “Web 2.0″ applications and new ways of working in the field of research, education and diffusion -i.e. a University’s quintessential activity-, based on a participatory and open spirit, on-line applications and a great wealth of data.
The full text is only available in Catalan and Spanish.

Just a year ago I posted about my PhD dissertation (last step towards the thesis) and uploaded it here:
Peña López, I. (2005). e-Learning for Development: a model. Barcelona: ICTlogy
with abstract and full text in a 1.1 Mb PDF licencesed under a Creative Commons by-nc-nd license. Yesterday the paper reached 6,000 downloads. Besides the paper, I have now 22 more references including all kind of articles and presentations, sometimes full text, sometimes the presentations, sometimes just the reference. Indeed, there are about 200 pages in the Wiki, more than 600 entries (authors and works) in the ICT4D Bibliography and 4 full text online educational resources at the ICT4D Courses repository. The blog has almost 400 total entries (including pages) and somewhere in the past it became a...
So, the online magazine UPDATE - Dianova International e-magazine has just published and article of mine entitled e-Learning para el desarrollo [e-Learning for Development].
The article is sort of a remake in Spanish of the Introduction to my paper e-Learning for Development: a model. Thus, there is really nothing new there, but if you can’t read English comfortably, well, you can use it as a good translation.

My colleague and friend César Córcoles (UOC professor in the area of multimedia) and I have imparted today a second version of a previous speech of mine entitled Web 2.0 and diffusion of research.
Today’s seminar, scheduled as an activity of the UNESCO Chair of e-Learning, has really been improved by César’s participation, which has resulted not in an actually new version but a new presentation in its whole (César pricelessly helped me through the former seminar and was thus cited as main reference there — he was long due to appear on stage and get his due recognition :).
You can find here the presentation in Catalan (original version) and English.

On March 10th I imparted a seminar entitled Web 2.0 and diffusion of research here in Barcelona, at the headquarters of the University.
Please find here the presentation (in Catalan). Hope I’ll find time and translate it into English and/or Spanish.
Abstract:
Buzzword or not, the Internet is changing and the so-called Web 2.0 applications might mean new ways to work in the research-education-diffusion field (i.e. the University field). This presentation’s goal is raising a reflection and showing a “good” practice in difusion of research, after Ismael Peña’s experience in the area of Public policies for development and ICT4D at the Open...
