The Learning Technology Team

I have really enjoyed being part of the LT team this year

Some of the benefits I have had include:

• Having access to other people (including the Hub) with skills in all sorts of things that I now feel I can call upon for advice. Now that we have met and we are in a team together I feel more comfortable in asking them for advice. It also gives you more confidence in trying new technologies.
• becoming better at using Adobe Connect which I think will be useful for me both for communicating with staff as well as students.
• Seeing the possibilities of new technologies which I didn’t even know existed before and being able see how they have been used in a variety of learning situations.
• From a section perspective I pass on what I have learnt to my team (especially Moodle) and I am learning from them also as they are working out new ways to use Moodle.
• From a faculty perspective I am introducing other teachers to Moodle so we will slowly increase the use of eLearning across the faculty
• Personally my vocabulary is improving I can use words like Wikki, blog, ning and so on and have half an idea of what they are, I also like the fact that we are sent “tasks” to do which are quick but expose us to different things – like the Blog confidence – I have never done a blog before , have though I should have a look at it but it wasn’t until I was set a task to do that I actually went and did it!!!

I just wish I had more time to experiment and increase my skills!!!  That is the biggest issue I have.
