The Open University has released a book on ROLE. This is good, as ROLE - Responsive Open Learning Environments - is a major project covering many aspects of recent work in fields such as Personal Learning Environments (which some of us in MOOC-mania haven't forgotten). Unfortunately, I can't provide a review, since I'm in the office and hence using my PC Desktop, not an Apple or iPad, and the book was deveped, as neatly as I can tell, exclusively for the Apple platform. There isn't even a PDF - the 'download' they provide is a specialized .ibook format (there's a fun discussion on the Apple support website). OU is generally better than this, which makes me wonder what sent them off the rails this time.
