Currently looking at networking tools-web, computer and mobile device based for establishing a community of practice for HIV care in resource limited settings.

Ramblings from Antwerp

It was not so long ago I was sitting in Room X at the Institute of Tropical Medicine listening to Inge de Waard introduce a group of us to Moodle(TM) as an example of an e-learning platform.  Here I am again listening to her talk about blogging at the 2010 eSCART facilitator's workshop on networking of alumni and community of practice, etc. My first fruits from the seeds of this new knowledge is this blog.
So here are my first comments.

• Inga's introduction to blogging as a tool for networking was the easier part of the learning curve.
• Jean Van der Vennet's talk was material-dense and eye opening. It was nice to hear about experience from the ITM alumni groups but it current seems quite tasking and time and personnel-demanding to maintain these networks.
• More for later
