Rick - Review of Rick's Captivate list - ; focusing on core kernel for training; will email to Jan for approval. Automated VM plans on automated course sites; project sites w/more flexibility; next week - codify all the standards for clips.
Training Dan - on Unicon training sessions: Dan - interesting Interesting to see training curriculum - too long and covered too much; backwards introduction of some tools, ie.eg., starting Tests & Quizzes w/templates. Tak home lesson Templates. Take Home Lesson - keep it simple, start w/with a limited menu from day 1; showing tools advocates using them; launch with Resources, Announcements , for the intro to sakai w/Sakai with more advanced training later.
Intro to Sakai in 1.5 hour format; give faculty time to get used to the tools before introducing other (mature) tools. Faculty in training session were overwhelmed by number of tools - and frustrated by overlap of functionality in tools.
Message that VM gives wants to give their faculty - simple, functional, w/limited tool accessibility, since everything is new to VM facultythem. Separate classes for quizzing, discussion, etetc.c , one topic at a time. Must be done in computer lab to get hands on experience.
