hello Carina - have you spoken to Fed and Janet strivens at Liverpool
about the "stuff" we are doing here - our model seems to work for lots
of people in lots of schools for some of reasons - perhaps because we
developed the model to take the student into the APC professional
requirements for their institutions - it's where you do not link the
stuff into real life needs that it appears to go astray.
I am not going to Manchester but I can talk to people in the new year
if you want - busy with large numbers at the moment and only me
facilitating PDP acrose the UG and PG's here at Westminster.
My advise is decide what you want to achieve and work back from that
with the materials then offer a pcik and mix for the studenst to work
through and DO NOT restrict the technology they use - go with it and
portfolio's in Bb - don't bother with the tool as my students find it a
stream driven monster!

Hello ladies
I use Blackboard currently, but not sure I can share any good practice,
as I am still experimenting, however would be interested in whether you
have used e-portfolios?
I won't be able to attend the Manchester conference but would be very
interested in seeing your resource if at all possible.
Thank you

Hello Carina
I'm days away from launching a resource for students through Blackboard
which I am demonstrating at the PDP conference in Manchester next week
if you are going? Might also be able to help with a short term demo
account if you would like.

Subject: Using Blackboard for PDP
Hi everyone,
Portsmouth is currently looking into a revamp of the ways in which PDP
is offered to students and supported throughout the university. At
present we are pretty much locked into using WebCT Vista but in order to
make the most of what we do have and capitalise on this opportunity to
change the way it works, I was wondering if anyone is using
(successfully if possible, but not exclusively) Blackboard for PDP. I
would be very interested to hear what works, what doesn't, what you've
added or taken away and how staff are supported in its use. Also, if
there would be any possibility of having access to a demo account then
that would be very helpful indeed.
Thanks very much for your help,
Carina
