Web co-ordinators' forum invitation
21 January 2004

Below is the content of an e-mail invitation that was sent to the www-coordinators@nottingham.ac.uk list in early December 2003. The invitation is open to all staff, not just to web co-ordinators, but if there is excessive demand, web co-ordinators will receive priority in provision of licences for the learning materials.

Who is it for?

On-line learning is likely to suit:

  • staff who prefer self-directed study to attending courses
  • staff who would like to be able to practise or revise skills

Introductory event

I have arranged an introductory session on Wednesday 21st January 2004 2.00pm - 4.00pm where participants will:

  • see a demonstration of the materials
  • identify their learning objectives
  • learn about strategies for effective on-line learning
  • discuss support required for achieving learning objectives
  • agree on a realistic time frame for achieving learning objectives

You are welcome to attend this introductory event on a no-commitment basis. However, you will be asked to commit to an agreed learning plan before you are issued with a username and password for the materials.

If you wish to attend the Introductory event, please notify Anthea Roberts by Friday 9th January 2004. You will be informed of the venue shortly before the event.

Thank you,
Rachel
