Hi Guys,
I think i have chosen a project for this paper. I will be designing an online induction or orientation module for our NCC students. This is something our programme leader wanted to get done, so I thought i will take it up as my project and complete it.
Currently the induction for new students is totally done face to face - and if students are not able to make it to the fixed session - they are unable to start the course since the induction is compulsary. So its a good idea to blend the talking that is done face to face, together with some presentations and videos and provide an online induction that can be interactive and informative to all the new students. This online module would benefit students who are unable to attend induction or prefers to do it as distance learning.
I have planned a meeting with my programme leader to make some clear goals of what is expected from her and incoporate it into my project. There is a lot that can be done, so once i have set up some solid goals of what i want to achieve by the end of this semester - i will update you guys.

Choosing the Elearning Topic/Project
Hi Guys,

I am at the edge of deciding on what special topic - to choose for my paper. I was thinking of developing a resource for students or an exploration of different ways to teach and perhaps trying out some of the strategies with my students. At present I am thinking of creating an online orientation for the induction of new NCC students in our programme. Have asked other lecturers and my Programme leader if they have any projects in mind that they would like me to do my research on. Once i get back from all of them, will decide on my topic and discuss it with Oriel before posting it on here.
I would like to keep the project accomplishable within this semester and something that would not require a lot of budget and can be done within 150 hours.
I have decided to use this blog as a Reflective Journal while doing this Special Topic Paper, and will be posting milestones and the progress with my proect on here. Would appreciate your comments and ideas during the semester.
