November/December 2008

The project really started to get going after the start-up meeting at the University of Warwick where we got the opportunity to meet staff from other institutions and find out about the different projects. We were allocated cluster groups based on the main project areas of interest and we are working with Kingston College, Kingston/De Montfort University and the College of West Anglia.

Following the start up meeting we came back and started to put the detailed plan together by presenting the vision to those who would be involved, agreeing roles and responsibilities and forming a steering group. These discussions not only enthused our stakeholders but also helped us to clarify our objectives and work began on setting up Moodle to provide the core components.

Meetings took place between our technical team and the guys at ULCC to agree how the databases would be populated and the eLearning team worked with them to create an initial look and feel.
