WebCT Communication Hubs What, why, and how? (Michael Coghlan) Application 1 (Liz Roarty) Application 2 - chat (Linley Joomjaroen)

WebCT Communication Hubs WebCT - not just an online tool (and not everyone wants to go online) great resource for f2f classes/workgroups explosion across TAFE SA

WebCT Communication Hubs WebCT was designed as an online course delivery tool early adopters designed and delivered content how can you use this with f2f classes? What if you just use a homepage –for storing resources/documents? –plus communication tools and links?

WebCT Communication Hubs And so the concept of hubs was born Uses: f2f delivery and distance delivery professional development projects workgroup communication across campuses

WebCT Communication Hubs Face to face teaching –discussion and chat –class homepage –student pix and bios –a sense of place/a home on the Internet –links to resources

Hubs and Constructivism (on and off line) Move away from bodies of content –expensive and time consuming –the Net is already full of resources –why did we ever think we would do something that we would never do in traditional teaching?

Hubs and Constructivism Whether f2f or online, hubs allow: –resource/document storage –appropriate links –communication tools for collaborative learning

WebCT Communication Hubs Induces reluctant teachers to use online tools they can slowly introduce online technology into their classrooms in manageable, achievable stages backdoor induction to the online environment

HOW ARE HUBS BEING USED? WORKGROUPS –professional development resources –meeting agendas/discussion –diaries (who is where?) using the calendar tool –document storage and sharing –communication across campuses (discussion, chat, )

HOW ARE HUBS BEING USED? ESL Talk (Liz Roarty) the use of a hub in a Distance Learning project (Linley Joomjaroen)

CHAT Not just a light conversation but a very powerful and exciting learning tool.

WHERE TO NOW? decentralisation to the local campus/workgroup a hub for each workgroup? a hub for each teacher? who creates them? should it be admin staff? templates for ease of use and consistent look?
