Just to express my thanks and appreciation for the conference. Most stimulating, most fascinating, a great learning experience for one almost too old for it but perhaps not quite.

Thank you for an inspiring couple of days. Could you email me the paper you talked about at lunch as being useful for my fellowship proposal?

Dear Norman, Jo and Clare,

Thank you for another good opportunity to learn.  I would be interested in some more theoretical approaches to the subject.  I think an immersive learning experience fits on a continuum (or an island) somewhere, and would like to know its neighbours.

I am not sure I should really thank you for arranging the second life introduction - I can see its addictive potential!  But I have enjoyed flying around.

When I stepped into the Open Space and offered to host a conversation on student generated assessment I did not know that on the 12th January my head would be buzzing with all sorts of insights made possible by the conversation and the others I went to.  For me it is how the conference built up a picture of immersive experience using a range of events to do this before the open space event. I was doing a lot of thinking,  locating my own experiences thoughts of the events and connecting with the pictures offered by others. The timing of the open space event, comimg after I had done some evaluative thinking, made it possible for me to take up the invitation to host the conversation. Margaret Volante

Many thanks for an enjoyable immersive experience at the conference. I found the sharing of stories especially interesting and productive, and I think there is a lot to be gained from this appreciative/coaching approach.

As for the 'immersive' question, I think it's important for us not to get to hung up on the semantics, but to be clear in any individual case what our definition is, while focusing on the practical aims and benefits within the relevant context.

I plan to undertake a couple of immersive experiences in the coming weeks, as it happens, and I will approach them confident in their potential for my learning and development, even at this age. I am being explorative in this, of course, but that's another story.(From Russ Law)
