With apologies for cross posting
After each elearning group meeting (limited to 15 people at a time) we post
a short summary to the elearning list so that those unable to attend can
follow up topics of interest with those who were there.
If you would like to find out more about the elearning group for museums,
libraries and archives, please contact Martin Bazley or Emma Willson
([log in to unmask]). Details of next meeting posted below.
The main topic for discussion on 2 Dec was:
"How to create accessible online resources for lifelong learning",
within limited resources, given the diversity of audience types and learning
styles.
Over the two hours other topics were addressed:
'Learning journeys'
The need to get other depts on board, so that website does not work in
isolation from, or antagonism to, other activity.
Need-driven community projects work best
If budget allows, build in ways of involving users e.g. via forums
Funding sources
Need more knowledge sharing re NOF digi and similar projects
Present were:
Carolyn Royston, AtticMedia (host)
Oliver Vicars-Harris, Tate
Emily Leach, River and Rowing Museum Henley
Katy Elliott, soon to be working at River and Rowing Museum Henley
Tim Saward, British Library
