"Blackboard vs. my personal e-learning utopia"In my internship report, I took some time to reflect on my experience. My internship went really well, I delivered much more than what was expected of me, and provided a technical basis (documentation, code snippets...) for future developments...
Considering the short 10-weeks timespan, it was a great result... but I couldn't help wondering if what we did was really the right thing to do. In particular, were we really serving the teachers and students... or did we just become slaves of the technical solution that was implemented? 4 years on, and with some additional experience gained on Moodle, ECMs and ERPs in the meantime... I wouldn't change a single word of this text! |
