Improving student experience: how do reading lists fit?

I spent two days this week attending a conference looking at how different universities are trying to improve the  accuracy, currency and availability of reading lists for their units. There were lots of common themes but also some really idiosyncratic and intriguing nuggets. To help me keep track of what I learnt, I created a Storify; there are lots more excellent tweets on #mtrlc but these were the ones I need to reflect on.

It's probably a bit full of library-geekery to be of interest to you from an education-perspective. However, I'm including it here, in case I'm misjuding you and also because the activity of tweeting a CPD event has some lessons from a learning-perspective.

This was the first event where I totally abandoned note-taking and stuck to tweeting (with a scribble pad to capture actions). The discipline of brevity and the public nature of the form, makes you think much harder about what you want to record. It was enriched by the RT and direct tweet dialogues that evolved during and after papers.

And, after the two days, I felt I had synthesised more information than usual. But, I am more at sea, about connecting which learning point with which paper because you tweet in a stream; if I was typing or writing with a pen, I'd have left gaps/underlined things etc.

It wasn't until I came to do this Storify that I realised you can add in text and headings. Perfect!
