Discussion about components of a training model-
Districts share common issues and problems regarding
telecommunications training for their staffs-
Where to start?
How to get access at each district's building?
Suggested Approach for Training-
Themed modules along the case model lines
Modules will be one to several hours long
All lessons and materials will be on SEORF in a SIG
This will be expandable and new resources will
be added as discovered
This Training SIG will reflect our similar
interests and problems
It can point to other resources on other systems
Module Topics -
Issues of access
Netiquette and Appropriate Use
Basic skills - different interfaces, keyboarding,
other means of connecting
Advanced skills - downloading, file management
Subject (Curriculum) Area specific resources
Library module
Information Evaluation Module - How can we choose
from the info-feast wisely
length 1 1/2 - 2 hours
group shares problems and successes
new skills are introduced
participants practice new skills using a task outline
that offers choices that address the skill to learn
success is assessed using the skill taught
Case Module Model items for consideration -
each should be one page
participants will compose ideas for these at home this week
create screen overheads on disk that can be viewed by learners
