One of the main barrier we have identified to embed eLearning at EFC is time. Time for staff to be trained, time for them to develop LO. By engaging students in the learning and teaching process, the barrier is taken down, the teacher also benefits from a pool of LOs that he/she can use the following year, while the students are stimulated by the ownership of their own learning. Everybody wins. “<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Some great inspiration here, please pass on our congratulations to your colleagues Vikki and thanks for sharing the link.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Alistair<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#548DD4'>Alistair McNaught<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#548DD4'>Senior Advisor <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#F79646'>JISC</span></b><b><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'> <span style='color:#31849B'>TechDis<o:p></o:p></span></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#548DD4'>C/O The Higher Education Academy Building<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#548DD4'>Innovation Way<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#548DD4'>York Science Park<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#548DD4'>YORK<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#548DD4'>YO10 5BR<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#17365D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#548DD4'>07870567659<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#548DD4'>Skype: alistair_techdis<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:navy'><a href="http://www.jisctechdis.ac.uk/?utm_source=emailsig&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=sitelaunchmail"><span style='color:blue'>http://www.jisctechdis.ac.uk</span></a> </span><span style='color:#C00000'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F6228'>Interested in pragmatic inclusion- focused staff development? <br>See JISC TechDis <a href="http://www.jisctechdis.ac.uk/techdis/pages/detail/floating_pages/ITQ_Accessible_IT_Practice"><span style='color:#4F6228'>ITQ for accessible IT practice</span></a> information and <a href="http://itq.jisctechdis.ac.uk/mod/resource/view.php?id=5"><span style='color:#4F6228'>taster resource</span></a>. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
