LMac??

Congratulations to Lake Macquarie Outreach (Glendal campus) who have created "OUTREACH LMac ONLINE" and established an online course - Intro to Event Management "a trailblazer event that will set the stage for other programs to follow". Suzanne's innovative creativity supported by Cass Ralph has resulted in a great resource for their local community.
Suzanne has used a range of tools of FOSS and Social Software tools such as Surveymonkey for a needs analysis, wiki's to set up class tasks when in the computer room. the wiki also work well for individual student's learning journal and for posting research which other members for use as reference material.
Another group set up a wiki page on a negotiated aspect of Living in Australia. The groups used the wiki well, working co-operatively and remotely. The group uses the online facility to keep in touch while they are doing work experience, adding any suggestions arising from their experience about valuable additions to a future course.
