Re: [VLES] Sites for eLearning strategy/effects research
Hi Laurence
 
My masters dissertation was on "the implementation of collaborative e-learning in a landbased HEI" looking at various issues and I would be pleased to contribute to your research if you wished.
 
Our approach has largely been "bottom up" using e-learning champions across the FE/HE sectors, using WebCT.  Email if you wish me off-list at [log in to unmask].

Carol,

networked learning identifies the need for the
involvement of all stakeholders as it is the most
recent cross-disciplinary paradigm. if this bit
(cross- and all stakeholders part, networked learning
& learner-centered education) is missing from his
dissertation then his argument might not be coherent.
he might have the bottom up, the bottom down as well
as the approaches in the middle. then he might be able
to evaluate the approaches and if he feels like it,
let us know about the results :)

best regards,
niki
