I am a huge proponent of backchannel learning (
see related posts). There are lots of conferences I would love to be able to attend, but my budget can only accomodate one or two each year. The backchannel is an excellent resource for learning from a conference or event that you are unable to attend in-person.
Last year, I posted a collection of the learning resources I was able to compile from the DevLearn10 conference backchannel (
post). It was a valuable learning experience for me, and the collection seemed to be of value to others as well. With that in mind, I recently reviewed the archive of backchannel tweets from the Learning Technologies conference held on January 26th and 27th. There were over 1,900 tweets posted with the conference hashtag (#LT11UK), so there was plenty of value being shared.
For starters, the
official conference website has the program guide available. You can access it
HERE.

I am still reviewing the full transcript and will be adding to this list as I discover new resources. I will tweet updates if additional links are added. If you know of a valued resource I should add to the list - or if something is inaccurate - please add it to the comments or tweet me a link to @LnDDave.
If you find these collections of value, I have posts that consolidate the backchannel resources from other conferences. An archive of all of these posts can be accessed by clicking the link below:
