Learning Innovation (on hiatus)

Given everything that's happening here, and after a review of our external comms requirements, we've decided to mothball this account and concentrate our efforts elsewhere. If you'd like to get in touch with us please email us at lds-learninginnovation@open.ac.uk. Thanks, LI

@dougclow I'm still having issues with OD, SP, and Word docs since those issues MS were having week before last. Specifically with sync of docs that are shared, but also ones where I've used different devices or online and then in-app. Various changes go missing and timeline out of whack!

Do you ever get the feeling OneDrive is gaslighting you? Yeah I suppose it is just about possible that I quit without saving so all those changes I have a clear memory of making are gone. But if I did that, how come the timestamp is after I did those changes, eh?

@nicolablackwood @GeorgeFreemanMP @Jeremy_Hunt Hey @nicolablackwood I think you may need adjust your tags, as I assume you meant to tag @OxUInnovation here, rather than us? Thanks and have a good day! :-)

Can virtual environments support effective, collaborative hybrid working? Our report on the Digital Working Environment Exploratory Project carried out @OpenUniversity this summer, in partnership with @OU_LD_Team and @HEFCW, tackles this very question. learninginnovation.info/research/the-v…
