Trainers: Ray Lonsdale and Chris Armstrong
Venue: Tower Hamlets Professional Development Centre, English St, London E3

The overarching aim is to enable those attending to develop skills
commensurate with creating a simple portal to e-resources. A subsidiary aim
is to examine Wikis and VLEs as an alternative means of promoting and
delivering e-resources to students and pupils.
The objectives are to:
Evaluate a small range of existing portals
Isolate the aspects that work well
Consider the design issues in developing a portal
Evaluate alternative approaches to portal development
Understand the design/stylistic issues relating to house style and
good practice
Explore and use basic HTML coding to develop and prototype portal
Explore and discuss VLEs as an alternative to portals
The workshop participants will be undertaking individual exercises at
workstations and a small group exercise, in addition to talks and
demonstrations from the workshop leaders. Workbooks and e-resources on
diskette/USB stick (bookmarks, HTML exercises, portal templates) will be
supplied.
