 * promotion and marketing**

will we create a flyer? Brand Management may be happy to create a flyer. Otherwise I can do this.

how will be brand? I believe you have your own brand (e-Mania) and we have just registered our own business unit brand (e-Skills) so maybe we create a banner for the top of the Moodle (and the flyer) which has both brands plus wording something like "A collaborative e-learning activity from Tasmania and South Australia"...or something like that.

do we involve 'branding'? eeek BM have become quite approachable since Kerry T took over the Management. And not so scary either. [grin]

23 things //**** for educators and trainers: adding some ‘e’ to your training **

You want to get started in e-learning. But the question is ‘where do I start?’

The aim of this 6 week online course is to introduce you to some concepts and tools that will allow you to get started simply and quickly – with a focus on how the tools we’ll discuss will work for you and your students.

The focus is on the learning enabled by the tools – not the tools themselves.

The aim is to encourage all of us to experiment and learn about the new and emerging technologies that are reshaping the context of training and flexible learning. It is based on the [|**Learning 2.0 program**] designed by Helene Blowers, the Technology Director at the Public Library of Charlotte & Mecklenburg County.

//23 things// contains direct links and offers suggestions for ways to incorporate web tools into your classroom and workplace training collaborations. You'll find ideas to "jump start" your thinking and I hope you will share your ideas as you learn how to use these web 2.0 tools. These are powerful tools. In fact, the design and implementation of this whole program was built using Web 2.0 technologies that are freely available on the Internet. These include: Moodle, [|Blogger], [|Flickr], [|Odeo], [|TeacherTube], Wikispaces & [|Bloglines].

//23 things// has been set up as part of the [|Australian Flexible Learning Framework], by the Tasmanian [|E-team] and the South Australian [|E-skills].

Dates for the course are:

Week 1 - 17 May Week 2 - 22 May Week 3 - 14 June

Week 4 - 21 June Week 5 - 28 June Week 6 - 5 July

Meet face-2-face to get underway with the course: in Hobart in the Library Training Room 10 – 1 (light lunch provided) on 21 May.

There will also be an online session in Elluminate on 21 May from 4 – 5 pm AEST for those who aren’t able to attend in person.
