This is a diagram I developed for the paper I am giving at the VET E-portfolios Showcase Symposium 2009 - learning for life, in Melbourne (http://www.flexiblelearning.net.au/content/e-portfolios-showcase). I developed it to capture and illustrate the following notions:
* Developmental/showcase/professional
* Private/public space
* Trust/rapport
* Rehearse as a group as well as an individual
* Collection of 'projects' - some half-finished, some ready for the next production, some still in the concept phase, some abandoned
* Spend time as an apprentice, sweeping, painting scenery, learning the vocabulary
* Start to rehearse. Feedback from director/peers (work collaboratively to interpret a script)
* Personality - interpretation of the script (role/assessment/rubric)
* Audience - who are they? Appropriacy. Don't always know (global)
* Dress rehearsal/first night - iterative feedback loop
Think differently, make mistakes, invent. Give choice and agency to your learners. Make it accessible.
This AKF supported studio allows teachers to record lessons or learning courses for use by distance learning students, resulting in many more students having access to learning opportunities.
Students were asked to express matters important to them using clay, issues concerning deforestation, gender imbalance and extinction were explored in the first of this weeks short burst taster sessions in a variety of different techniques demonstrated during skills week.
It is *possible* that this is a blended learning class. The instructor is working a problem and projecting his process on-screen via a document camera. This *could* be part of the content presentation for a blended course, or it *could* be a response to a f2f question concerning an online assignment. The students seated with their notebook computers *might* be reviewing online course content corresponding with the instructor's presentation, or they *might* be taking notes. We really can't tell definitively from this photo alone whether this is a blended learning course. We would have to obtain more information from the instructor and students.

In addition to providing our main island as a free resource, we now have a second island which can be used for special language or culture related events such as presentations, workshops, seminars, roundtables, conferences, demos, concerts and parties!
Our new "Paradise Island" can be used free of charge by anyone who needs a private or public space for a large event (maximum 20 avatars). We gladly provide additional support and resources on an as needed basis. We can also modify the look and feel of the island to help create the ideal atmosphere for your event.

I have been working on a process model and framework, adapted from earlier theoretical and practical examples. In the process, I have attempted to develop a set of tools that help answer the question “Where do I start?” for practitioners who are unfamiliar with adapting education resources to make effective use of ICT Enhanced Learning and Teaching (ICTELT). Employing a scaffolded approach appropriate for working in small teams, or as individuals, the guiding questions form the foundation for collaborative discussion of design choices, ICT tool selection, and the incorporation of a range of pedagogical approaches with a variety of tools. The model and framework can be used with new and/or existing programmes, modules, units, sessions, or learning objects, but initially practitioners are encouraged to trial the process on a small scale.
I am very keen to receive feedback about the ICTELT model and framework, and to share ideas around helping practitioners and teams to design and develop ICTELT programmes.
