eLearning11 keynote: Enabling workforce development - insights from industries using e-learning

*************************** (Stephan Ridgway & Alex Hayes) — Sun, 11 Dec 2011 20:57:20 PST

Dr John Buchanan

Director, Workplace Research centre
University of Sydney

Synopsis

Future workforce development is dependent on quality training provision. Yet individuals, workplaces and industry sectors that would most benefit from training are often unable to access it. In 2010 WRC undertook research into three sectors using e-learning. IT was found that e-learning can help to overcome traditional barriers to training such as geographic isolation, casual and part-time employment, and work intensification.

eLearning11: E-learning for indigenous learners in remote communities

*************************** (Stephan Ridgway & Alex Hayes) — Sun, 11 Dec 2011 20:44:24 PST

Presenter
Georgina Nou, TAFE SA Regional

Synopsis

Education and training for indigenous people in remote communities has been fraught with difficulties because of geographical isolation, cultural concerns, peoples’ mobile lifestyles, economic considerations and need for focus. With the provision of ADSL internet in the Lands, we have adopted online training and have seen significant changes in access, participation and enthusiasm by community members. We have extended the capacity to deliver engaging, interactive and regular online sessions since the 2007 start, using Centra web-conferencing, Moodle and innovative technologies. POV technology, virtual worlds and interactive multimedia resources offer text alternatives for learners with inadequate literacy skills. After 10 years of working with remote indigenous communities Georgina brings her insights on the various initiatives and explores the issues for remote learners and educators when taking outbush training online.

Presenter
Andrew Douche

Synopsis
In this presentation, Andrew will explain why he believes it is necessary for educators to adopt new approaches to communicating with a new generation of learners. His intention is not to promote “high-tech” skills in teachers, but rather to encourage widespread adoption of easy-to-use technologies that are ‘high-concept’ and have the power to transform class interaction.
Andrew discusses how any educator is able to change the way he or she communicates with students, taking advantage of the very same digital communication tools that Gen-Y students use. From podcasting to online forums to mobile phones, this presentation will explore the potential in digital communication technologies to challenge where, when and how class members interact, and even who the class members are.

Presenter
Kaye Bowman

Synopsis
Kaye’s presentation will discuss seven factors required together to sustain e-learning innovations:
1. Strategy – a longer term view than any one e-learning innovation is required.
2. Senior leadership – must support in ways appropriate to their particular situation.
3. Business case – is a key driver for for-profit businesses, especially cost savings.
4. Resourcing – external resources are short term; internal resources are required.
5. Champions – to build capability especially through one-to-one mentoring on how to use technologies.
6. People supports – to make it possible for teachers to focus on achieving learning using technologies that
could be internally and/or externally located.
7. Technology – both sufficient hardware and software support that could be internally and or externally
located. An organisation’s level of e-maturity depends on how well they exhibit these seven factors.

Presenter
Howard Errey
Victorian Innovations Coordinator, Australian Flexible Learning Framework

Synopsis
Ever wondered what happens on the inside of an innovator? We’d all like to think that we can empower and open our students and organisations to the new wonderful ways of the web; but it’s not always simple and straightforward. There’s the challenges on the outside such as firewalls and the risk managers; but there’s also our inner psychology to deal with as well. Innovators might be able to see a marvellous future or potential, but don’t always feel empowered about what is going on around (and inside) them right now; and often feel alone.
Looking at mythology about innovations as well as examples of some notable innovators and sample E-learning Innovations projects, Howard looks at what makes an innovator and ask ‘how much fire can we steal?’ The intention of this session is that we gain insight into our own capacity for empowerment and development as an e-learning leader.

This session provides participants with strategies and resources that will facilitate a planned approach to e-learning for a course or unit of competence. The session is particularly useful to participants
who are just starting out in e-learning or who have simply taken a dive into e-learning without a planned
approach. Throughout the session participants will be exposed to a range of common free e-learning tools and draw on the past experiences of a sample of e-learning innovations projects, highlighting the project’s journey and taking note of some key lessons learned along the way.

Rory O'Brien
Instructional learning designer, CLI

Presentation:
A case study in how e-learning platforms such as a blog, a learning management system and regular webinar sessions, can be combined to provide e-learning capability development for a large training provider.
The CLI Connects project began in March 2010 as a way to support the needs of TAFE NSW teachers and staff who wanted to learn more about a range of e-learning topics and technologies. These weekly web conferencing sessions have proved effective and have brought together a state-wide audience. The combination of a number of platforms for delivery has expanded the possibilities and usefulness of the program. The session looks at the topics that have proved popular and discusses how this model may be adapted for other organisational environments
