Hello group. Thanks to Kerry for setting this new wiki site and getting us going. What we thought was that we would be better speaking through this wiki site and not on the ning.
 * __Blog 1__** (posted 16/4/12 @ 3.14pm)

Kerry, I am able to get access now so I will start searching for a website so we can talk when we get back to Uni or maybe before hand. Thanks, Matt

__**Blog 2**__ Hi all, Yes I am alive and so is the page. It is a rainy day in town so I will spend a bit of time on the internet exploring case studies. See you all when I have something. Don

__**Blog 3**__ (posted 17/4/12 @ 11.00am) Hi Guys and Girls its Matt. Good to hear Don (3rd bongo) you are up and running on this rainy day. My family have gone to the Easter Show so I have plenty of time to explore. Kerry, you found some great links and one's I think we can use at some stage. Which one do you like the best??

__**Blog 4**__ good morning, I'm at work on this lovely rainy day but only 4 students so an easy day. I really liked the scaffolding site on the tasinnovations site, the drag and drop concept for underpinning knowledge/pre-course. This is new to me and something that could be incorporated into a practical application. I was OK with the hairdressing but it was a little pedestrian, predominately using online for theory not practical. I'm off tomorrow and my aim is to play with Prezzi. See you soon Kerry

__**Blog 5**__ (posted 17/4/12 @ 12.28pm) Troups, (please ignor my organised anal approach to bloging and the dates / times etc) I have found an application that can be installed on your iphone which is listed on my page, take a look if time permits. Kerry, I feel this system is similiar to your point of view glasses and could be used in teaching Carpentry on-line although I am not totally convinced and will need sometime to think about its effectiveness. This does not exactly cover our topic but it is a start and could be used as part of our discussion when it takes shape. Matt

__**Blog 6**__ posted 21/04/12 Hi all Vickie reporting in - I have not got a clue as to what we are doing !! Been on holiday so only just getting back into the Uni mode. I will catch up with Kerry on Monday and get in the loop - sorry but I will make up the time and contribution. V

__**Blog 7**__ posted 4/5/12 (11.28pm) Groupmembers. I have found a building course similiar to the scaffolding one that Kerry found. Take a look see what you think. [] Click on the green arrow at the end of the web address this will take you to the website then click on sample sub floor framing and have a go at the task. Matt

BLOG *** Hi all, well if finding a case study wasn't hard enough I have just realised I have pushed everyone into an area/section of learning that has little application to E-learning. I have looked hard but so far I have only found case studies of the theory to back up practical lessons. The subfloor one Matt is a simplier version of a presentation that students can use to complete a whole house but is it support for a practical lesson or is it the teaching of practical skills. I am not sure. The idea of a practical lesson being given with glasses on the teacher and the student seems a practical lesson technique but can I find anything like that!!! I have found a case study of a brick laying course that uses computer generated images that the students need to manipulate but it still seems like the practice before the practical. Slightly confuesd...confused. Don

Can we teach practical with e-learning and how do institutions react to e learning?

9/5 KERRY HI GUYS WE ALL NEED A CASE STUDY AND THEN ANALYSE IT FROM AN EDUCATIONAL POINT OF VIEW WITH OUR UNDERLYING THEME OF THE LIMITATIONS. VICKIE IS EMAILING A SECOND LIFE SITE THAT MAY HAVE SOME STUFF FOR US AND THEN ANN RECOMMENDED LOOKING ON [] 9/5 VICKIE HA GUYS I HAVE BEEN SEARCHING FOR HAIRDRESSING CASE STUDIES AFTER ANN SAID NO TO OUR IDEA OF PRODUCING ONE I HAVE EMAILED A FEW SITES AND FOUND A FAB HAIRDRESSING ON LINE PROVIDER WHICH COULD BE USED FOR BLENDED LEARNING I HAVE ASKED THEM IF THEY HAVE ANY CASE STUDIES - IF THEY DON'T THERE ARE LOTS OF TESTIMONIALS FROM AROUND THE WORLD WHICH I WILL ASK ANN IF I COULD USE -I WILL RUN IT BY KERRY IN THE MORNING -NIGHT ALL V

Blog 10/5 Don
So Ann is OK with us moving to the right of E-learning for practical lessons in teaching? I have found an IT guy at the NSI who I have asked to find me any practcal teaching techniques for elearning. Give it a shot. So I will have a look at the suff above and use my bricklaying site. Don

10/5 Yes Ann is OK with us recommending where we think e-learning could/should o as far as our trades go. I'll still us my scaffolding flexible learning as my case study but Ann also recommended googling social learning on line to see if anything was there.On Tuesday, I'm videoing some students doing assessment and I can have that edited by the weekend of the 19th of May that will then go on the wiki. Today is my day to plan what I'm saying and I'll probably look at Merrill and Downes and Keegan (or how ever its spelled). Then next week I'll have a playdate with prezi. Kerry

Blog 10/5 Don x 2
Yeh I will have a look nat the stuff you have posted and see where that leads me. Don

some ideas for the introduction of our project questions - Why e learning is good for tertiary education Which direction is the push for e-learning coming from A. Vickie is researching industry B. Kerry is researching insitute/goverment C. Could one of you guys research this site and see where organisations are positioned http://www.flexiblelearning.net.au/content/engage/for_organisations.htm

= I AM ON TO THIS ^ .....DON =

D. Where is e-learning practice currently in relation to practical skilling
1 dimensional - written text photo wiki linked 2 dimensional video, drag and drop What is needed is 3 dimensional and/or 3 dimensional blended


 * I WILL DO "PART D" ............ MATT **

E. What are the issues with e learning in practical trades

then our thesis statement - Anybody got any ideas for that???????????????????????????????

=general research which may be of interest=

http://e-standards.flexiblelearning.net.au/research/emerging_technology_trials/2010_emerging_technology_trials.php#2010_vic_pov

Wodonga Institute of TAFE, VIC
This trial looked into streaming point of view (POV) digital footage into a virtual classroom in live classrooms in order to bridge large distances when providing training to geographically dispersed commercial cookery apprentices. The project sourced ideas and technical solutions from a number of industries (including broadcast television and security), using that equipment to create a working prototype.


 * "POV – Streaming live video into virtual classrooms" report (coming soon)

http://e-standards.flexiblelearning.net.au/research/digital_video.php

=Digital Video=

There is increasing demand for video content in vocational education and training (VET) e-learning delivery, driven by various factors including improved capabilities of mobile devices and the desire to make e-learning content more engaging for learners. The National Broadband Network is also expected to drive the use of video content for VET e-learning.

Research on this topic was initiated in 2011. The aim is to provide e-learning content developers and teachers with additional guidance about creating and delivering content for learners, to ensure that it can be utilised by the widest number of learners across various platforms and devices.

After 2 glasses of a lovely red, I've wordled us, very cool (if a 44 year old is allowed to say cool!!) and posted it to the wordle cloud (sounds a lovely place to visit). Take a look in wordle gallery if you want, edit to your heart content and see if it appropriate to our presentation.

Bored no so I'm now going to eat, watch TV and have a lovely party for one!!! See you Wednesday Kerry Here here girl !

I have done some research too and looked at the assessment criteria ( go to module 3 page) Ann has but lots of links

The group work will be presented in an in-class group presentation.
 * We need to do an order if we go with the dimension idea see chart below

Groups must also submit the results of their review in a digital format to be decided by the group.
 * PREZI – are we all OK with this media ?? ** YES!! D, yes matt,

Our suggested topic / issue is =Practical application for skills=

Our context is =Delivering and assessing education in hands-on skill faculties through e learning=

Skills development through E-learning: Case studies a couple of other possible titles Our red thread could be that we have all found that there is nothing that is available now that could be applied in isolation therefore BLENDED LEARNING is the current solution

we came up with a possible hypothsis that there are dimensions in e- learning link from module 3 suggestions its amazing!!!! []
 * 1 dimensional is text – pictures – case studies- portfolios ect – pictures with hidden text or links
 * 2 dimensional is - video – DVD – drag and drop-
 * 3 dimensional – interaction as true to life as in - X box – Wii – ect that you control a virtual world ie you could build a house from foundation up – control a stylist to cut hair ect – this technology is out there in the gaming world but is still in its early days for educational skills delivery

We could all take one the society is gen Y and on plus its what we are all using every day – Mat you mentioned the use of an I phone app for links ?? I have listed the link in the table above. I know this method of assessing the pactical component is being used now within TAFE with the theory component / quizs / written assessment tasks are all complete via Moodle and online interaction with the teacher.
 * We start with who is driving e learning into education and why
 * 1) Industry
 * 2) Government
 * 3) Educational providers
 * 4) Teachers
 * 5) Society

– possibly look at funding – new budget has funding for the new network for oz A drag and drop – 2 dimensional One other maybe incorporating video – 2 to 3 dimensional Then look at 2 examples of what is out there now 1. we found a great hairdressing web site from the UK that would work great as 3 dimensional blended learning (asking ann if testimonials can be used as a form of case study + we have e mailed to ask if they have any) maybe you guys could look to see if there is anything in other courtiers ie uk or america that is been used in your fields - on modula 3 there are lots of links ( see modual 3 page ) 2. The future this is FAB Adobe link to case studies and the Caspian Learning use of gaming technology ie x box – virtual worlds been formatted for education and skills delivery ink above ?????
 * We address the lack of e learning resources/software for all our faculties due to been hands on skills
 * Current solution blended learning
 * Present examples of what is available and how it could be blended from case studies i.e.
 * The hairdressing case study – 1 dimensional

Might be way off mark and will not be but off if told so (wouldn’t be the first time!!)

Off to bed after a wee dram (whisky for you Ozzies)

Well I have taken a look at most of the links and will do more absorbing tomorrow. I have looked at the training organisations;) link and can summarise this, the angry birds article and the Caspian as all are commercial in nature. I can see an angle for skills development in this area 9commercial) but the money is in sales I think!! Look for my comments along the way in green

Hello All its Matt. Sorry about leaving early last wednesday and thanks for placing Ann's feedback on line for viewing. Great work Vicki, Kerry and Don for geting all this info on line. I have placed my name next to section D. I have also placed my web links in the box but I have 3 with all varying in dimension. The I-phone is 1 dimensional, the building drag and drop is 2 dimensional and the cooking is 3 dimensional. I will leave it this way until we talk again, either on line or in class on wednesday. Maybe I could discuss all three as they all relate to section D's content. With our in class presentation, the use of Prezi would be good. We need to decide who is going to do this and provide them with some information so the slides can be produced or we all have a go??.With our digital group submission I agree with Prezi but also agree with just writing it up on this wiki site and submitting the link to Ann. Unless we all can do Prezi it will be unfair to who gets the job, whereas using the wiki we can all write our results of our review.

Hopefully you can all read this first blog have had some issues with computers at home. I'm sending out the help line, can someone please point in what direction I need to go?, E. What are the issues with e learning in practical trades
 * Is this area I should be lookin at? JIM **

13. 5 Hi Jim, Yes please. This is going to be part of the intro or conclusion, yet to be decided. Have you found a case study, just wondering if you would be interested in looking at http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/showcase/index.cfm?event=casestudydetail&casestudyid=474336&loc=en_us as your case study. Its about virtual learnring? It would be a great this is where e learning in the practical trades are going Kerry

14/05 8.00pm Thanks Kerry I have not found a case study searched around yesterday for acouple hours no success, will look at your link you suggested. Jim

[] Link from Anne - augmented learning. I will endeavor to find a case study.Jim
