Objectives
The pilot offering, predominantly to COL staff, VUSSC Boot campers and international visitors will:
  • Provide the skills necessary for using WikiEducator for VUSSC and incorporating the technology into COL's programme work.
  • Identify opportunities for improving the resources;
  • Identify questions that participants are most likely to ask for inclusion in the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) section of each tutorial


Welcome to visitors

A special welcome to all the visitors from different projects around the world who will be joining us with the pilot offering of the tutorials. Please take a look at the Instruction sheet we have sent out to COL staff. We look forward to your contributions in refining the tutorials while covering the basics of Wiki editing.

Dates and time commitments

  • Total time commitment: between 4 - 5 notional learning hours
  • Number of tutorials: There are eleven tutorials plus an optional tutorial on free content.
  • Estimated time per tutorial: Participants would need about 15 to 20 minutes per tutorial.
  • Technology requirements: Computer with Browser and Internet connection
  • ICT skills requirement: Basic browsing skills. Wiki editing is very easy and accessible.
  • Dates
    • 10 Working days commencing 12 February 2007 to 23 February 2007 for COL staff
    • 10 Working days commencing 19 February 2007 to 2 March for VUSSC participants.

Remember that the asynchronous design of the course will allow participants to progress according to their own work schedule. They can complete the tutorials in a single sitting or spread this out over the 10 days scheduled for the eLearning workshop.

Enrolling for the course

Note: - This is a dynamic site and as the pilot testing progresses, the community will be improving and uploading content for the duration of the pilot (which is scheduled to continue until 23 Feb 2007).
