Patricia (et al) In my previous job (Western Colleges Consortium for on-line learning) I gained an interesting insight into many of the pitfalls of implementing a VLE. Partly as a result of that in my new job at the JISC the MLE Steering Group initiated the production of the JISC MLE Information pack - which covers all the sorts of issues you need to take account of in its pages. While this has been sent to colleges (in two separate mailings) it can also be found at http://www.jisc.ac.uk/mle/reps/infopack.html. It is certainly a good starting point.

Is there anyone else who has gone ahead and made a purchase? I'd like to share ideas/learn from others about the intricacies of Learnwise - we are just about to have our administrator and then tutor training, is there anthing we should be aware of before we start fitting our curriculum into Learnwise? And also the more general area of how to implement a VLE - has anyone been through the process and is willing to share the problems, pitfalls and successes involved in rolling out such a new and radical way of working with students?
