Wow! What a great day on Tuesday. Thanks for the fabulous debate and contributions. I've drafted a "Team Story" that will eventually be posted onto the Learnscope website that Elisabeth gave us a guided tour of during lunch. The draft is located just below this on our main Smorgasbord page. Please take a few minutes (it's only one page) to read through it and suggest any changes. You could use discussions in WebCT, phone or email me direct. I have to submit it on July 11.
I have booked the videoconferencing facilities in Alanvale, Burnie and Hobart from 9.30-12.30. I thought that after lunch we can break up into smaller groups online and use the discussion, chat and/or student presentation parts of WebCT to continue our collaborations as needed.
Our "Team Story" is now up online here.
Go check it out, NOW!
Chat Sessions Scheduled: Wednesday, 23rd July at 3.30-4.30pm and Thursday 24th from 12.30-1.30pm in Room 2. Main topic: Communicating with learners
Questions to discuss and possibly answer: How often should we be in contact with our students? What should our response time be to enquiries and questions from students? How do we know when flexible learning is going well?

Some of you may have noticed the Online Tutorials link on the home page of the Learnscope LoungeHere you will find tutes on software such as Dreamweaver, which you can hop into straightaway. Other tutes such as FrontPage, Fireworks, PowerPoint and Internet Explorer are limited access, so just let me know if you'd like to explore these ones.
See you on August 5
