 * Apologies**:

Actions from PREVIOUS Meeting:

 * Once more I will ask BETT09 - Anyone see commercial curriculum software which enhances Active Learning or was everyone like [|John Connell's Blog]robthill> (didn't you ask this last week and get no response? user:dajbelshaw)
 * Follow up on last week? Anyone tried looking at WPMU since last week's flashmeeting **user:sinclairmackenzie**

Agenda:

 * **Student/learner/pupil voice** - how can educational technology help with this? What about 'parent voice'? Has this gone too far or does it require restructuring within education? (may wish to talk about [|Andy Field's success last week with blog] & if there's [|any truth in this Dilbert cartoon]!) user:dajbelshaw
 * **[|MirandaNet]** - who's a member? Is it worth joining? What's it all about? user:dajbelshaw
 * **Filtering:** Any successful strategies for making changes to existing restrictive policies? (Had the ultimate experience on filtering this week: **http://tinyurl.com/alh5wv) user:nwinton**

 * Nintendo DS - Have gradually been communicating with people using DS'es in schools via twitter and e-mail. Am planning to start a wiki or google presentation for people to share information about: purchase, uses, storage, security, etc. Does anyone know of anything similar pre-existing? (Other than individual blogs) Not here this week to discuss but you're welcome to discuss without me! user:dneedlestone
 * home page- can we repair the hijacked twitter panel? user:sinclairmackenzie
 * Blog text accompanying podcasts: needs to reflect podcast content as it is fed to iTunes as episode text, e.g. [|here] user:sinclairmackenzie
 * feedburner feed needs to be migrated to Google (and new-iTunes-feed-url tag set in podpress) user:sinclairmackenzie
