5 August 2010 - Visiting Phillip Butler at UCL

I had a very worthwhile visit to the University of London today. Phil Butler - Snr e-Learning Advisor - greeted me outside Russell Square after my delayed journey. After a tasty meal we headed off to Senate House to discuss how UCL could support SCOLA in our quest to become a pioneer ACL College in the use of technology.
Phil gave me and a few other visitors a whistle stop tour of the inspiring Senate House building. There are fascinating stories behind each room, which are designed to perfection and are truly beautiful.

Phil, in his usual helpful manner, took me around the office, introduced me to colleagues and has already arranged for Bernard Agdebo and Martin Sepion from RSC- London to visit SCOLA so that we can discuss a way forward. He also showcased and demonstrated various features from moodle and showed me exemplar websites from other colleges. It was great to see him enjoy doing what he does best - helping people use technology empowered tools and systems to grow, improve and progress. A very worthwhile day with great promise for the future.
