EdTechRoundup Weekly Special - Meeting with TALMOS representative

FlashMeeting - TALMOSLast Sunday’s weekly EdTechRoundup meeting was a special one. It came in response to an issue that surrounded a blog post by Doug Belshaw and EdTechRoundup Podcast 5.

Mike Jones from Core Projects & Technologies (UK) Ltd. accepted our offer for TALMOS to put their side of the story. We’re not releasing it as a podcast as the issue probably won’t be of interest to most of our listeners. However, we thought it important that we make available in unedited format the discussion that took place.
