Hi all,
Here at Swansea, we are looking at reviewing our e-learning training sessions for the coming academic year. Historically, we offer sessions specifically on our VLE (Blackboard) and also on a wide variety of external tools/ content types (eg blogs, wikis, podcasts, screencasts etc).
We have found that take up is usually fairly good for the new areas (twitter was one of the highlights this year), but are dwindling for others. Some areas have very little take-up, yet we think they could be important, for instance Social Bookmarking (using Delicious).
The format that we run is a one hour training session (different times, different days) followed by an optional hour if they want to stay and play with the tools and/or ask questions. We have a website with an events calendar that we advertise on, with an RSS Feed that links into Blackboard, as well as an all-staff email.
What I'd like to ask is, what format(s) do you run your training sessions in, how do you advertise and promote them, and how successful are they (rough % take up)?
Many thanks in advance for this information - please feel free to reply on or off list.
Regards
Helen Davies
Swansea University
