They made a recommendation of the application that they feel most appropriate to use for next term based on some key criteria that we agreed earlier in the year. This is GoToMeeting and we agreed that we would invest in sufficient licenses to enable staff to use this from September. There are still a few technical issues that need to be resolved but the NT team are on the case and we hope to be up and running soon.
We also got reports on the use of 2 different mobile devices from Jane Teh who has been using the Asus Eee-PC and Paul Herbert who has been using HTC Touch PDAs.
The streaming server is up and running internally but we still have to do some work on the server to make this accessible from out side the college – hopefully this will all be sorted by September.
The structure for the Portal has been agreed, we will be using Moodle as the platform and VLE, Mahara as our e-Portfolio and the ULCC PDP built into Moodle as our personal development plan. Although there is still work being done on the portal design we have now got courses set up and staff trained in how to manage them.
Heritage is still a bit behind schedule but we have a block for Moodle provided by IS Oxford who supply Heritage and ULCC will be working to integrate this in August.
