The learninginhand.com blog and podcast, owned and maintained by Tony Vincent, focuses on mobile devices for educators. Tony puts all his podcasts in a Grazr widget. You might want to get a copy, even if you’re not a teacher. There’s some good information in this one.
Open University is a big distance learning campus based in the UK. jinky32 decided to keep up with OU online by combining feeds from different sources, like a Technorati search feed, a FriendFeed, and a few blogs. If you’re curious about OU, take a look.
Must be something about Grazr widgets that attracts people who find learning important, because we have more education Grazrs to share with you. Great minds think alike, and Grazr-makers think minds are worth making great.
conchocon wins for the best widget we’ve seen in a while. It’s a collection of feeds to help you learn English, plus reading lists from tech sites, popular podcasts and video, and a couple of Google search boxes to boot. “Learn English” is so useful, you’ll want a copy for yourself, even if you already know how to speak the language.
Our next widget is a classic reading list, filled with dozens of feeds from education journals. Who knew? conflictlearning knew, and now you do too.
pratico contributed a widget containing feeds from education related blogs written in Italian. Take a look.

The Internet provides a rich resource of material to learn from, no matter what you’re looking to learn. This week, we’re highlighting some recent Grazrs that have focused on education. With a collection like this, someone is bound to learn something, and that’s a good thing.
First up is the Cumbria Learning Grid. Cumbria County, a rural shire in northwest England, promotes better education and child services through its site, the Cumbria Grid for Learning. To help site visitors stay abreast of education news in the UK, there are two Grazr widgets: one for education news from the BBC, and one that links to The Guardian.
Next is MIT’s OpenCourseWare. psychemedia posted a collection of feeds for MIT’s OCW (open courseware) learning information for advanced high school students. There are offerings in biology, calculus, and physics.
My personal favorite, the Triangle Grammar Guide becomes Grazr fodder at sirmirom’s blog. Pick this one up, and you too can know the meaning of “gobsmack.”
Just last week, we learned there is actually now a green Grazr. This widget highlights the “eco-lifestyle” of a college girl. The GreenStudentU Grazr gathers feeds from GreenStudentU.com, a blog that “introduces today’s students to a wide variety of global environmental issues by recognizing on-campus green initiatives and personal success stories, as well as how the world is being shaped by political environmental reform.”
And finally this week, jameskm03 made a great Grazr that collects the blog feed authored by Wofford College’s webmaster, Kyle James. Kyle’s blog is all about Internet marketing and Web development, from a higher education perspective. Take a look at some of the posts - you may find this Grazr worthy of a spot on your own site.
