Lindy Kemp, our Acting General Education Faculty Manager has obviously been busy exploring new technologies…
Not your usual Seasons Greetings
Lindy has created a
VOKI for her end of year Greeting to all staff. You can view the voki and her dedication message to Kate Jones (
WeLC for Great Lakes and Taree)
here.
This a great example of how LTT members continue to engage staff and the positive effects these tools are having.

An achievement for the CS&H faculty (and NCI TAFE)
How?
Well, CS&H teachers from:
Child Studies,
Nursing and
Welfare
met with Alex (from the Hub) .
We were sitting in
Port Macquarie
Taree and
Coffs Harbour.
We achieved great outcomes,
worked on Moodle course creation, and
shared destops using Adobe Connect …
with no travel involved.
The vision is working.

Today I read an inspiring email from Donna, one of our fantastic team members, who is very excited about a Moodle project she has been working on.
The email not only reflected the growth her own capability and confidence levels with the Moodle platform, but highlights her ability to effectively collaborate with her colleagues and encourage resource sharing in the faculty.
General Education Moodle course templates
As the Faculty e-Learning Contact for the General Education Faculty, Donna has been working tirelessly with her team to create some great ‘template’ Moodle courses for all Gen. Ed. staff to use. While these courses already contain some fantastic interactive resources, they can easily be duplicated and customised for other teachers in the faculty to use.
You can have a look at a tour of the Moodle template course by watching Donna’s CGVE Moodle template tour here. Donna gives you a comprehensive look through the CGVE English course and at the interactive resources that are currently available to engage and teach students.
Feel free to contact Donna if you would like to use this course.
In her email Donna says:
“I have to say that getting moodle setup is going to be really exciting- today Lyn Connors rang me with a suggested resource for CGVE- to use the new government anti-binge ads- so with a net search I’ve located them on a video, also a podcast discussing their effectiveness and many related articles on the net- am putting them into a little work unit with activities to add as a web page in the English moodle- good fun! I am getting less afraid!“
