Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path

This was meant to be my reflections on last week's ALT conference: Shaping the Future of Learning Together, [https://altc.alt.ac.uk/2015/ ]but like many people I know I've been distracted by the outcome of another conference, the Labour Party Special Conference to announce the winner of its leadership contest. My twitter stream has been a double-stranded flow of excitement about digital and political futures, with not much exchange between them. Some friends have even suggested that it would be good for me - and my twitter followers - if I kept my political views running in a separate channel to my work on digital literacies and digital education.

But it's hard not to notice how many people in the world of e-learning are dipping into the Corbyn stream.
