Effective Uses for Blogs, Wikis and Forums in VTE

Over the past few weeks our team of RTO Managers have been becoming conversant with different technologies available to support e-Learning, but help us out a bit! We have used this blog, our wiki, and forums at different times to discuss and share ideas. At times there seems to have been an overlap in the technologies used, ie we are using them to do the same thing it seems. So how could we have used them more effectively?

What we now want to do is build a resource that indicates how we might use these different technologies to gain maximum benefit for staff and clients. Leave us a comment, or go to our wiki to add your ideas.

Hole in the wall learning of IT skills

This is what I call thinking outside the square! Challenging to those of us who have traditional views in relation to learning and education but absorbing nevertheless.

Maybe it will give someone some ideas about a strategy or direction.

How ready is your organisation?

This fortnight we are looking at readiness of organisations to implement e-learning and aim to build a checklist in our wiki. We will draw on some work done by Greg Webb, TAFE NSW, in 2002 and add to it if we can. Feel free to let us know what you would put on your checklist by either commenting here or adding to our wiki.
