There will be a web conference on Elluminate (http://tinyurl.com/2y5o4j) on Tuesday 11 March 4- pm. This will be an opportunity for those of you who missed the face-to-face meeting to say hello to one of the facilitators (Bronwyn) and meet others in the class. Anyone who attended the workshop is also very welcome to attend.
This is a facility being used by lots of people in the polytechnic to communicate with off-campus students and distance teachers as well as for meetings - saves $ on travel. By using it in this course you will become familiar with the software, and find out if it could be useful for your students or for meetings with colleagues off-site.
Note: The meeting link will be open from 9am Saturday morning (8 March) so you can test it out.
- It will stay live until the meeting on Tuesday.
- You will need Java on your computer - download from
- Allow time for Elluminate to download (allow up to 60 min on dial up).
- A headset with microphone is ideal so you can speak but you can also use the chat facility.
We can also have a bit of a chat around the Week Two topic: What is Flexible Learning? AND the questions: This will give you a bit of a head start with something to post to your blogs.
- Is flexible learning a new concept or just a fancy new word for an old way of doing?
- What are you already doing in your practice that you believe enables flexible learning?
- Talk to you soon.
- Bronwyn
