We've just finished 1.5 days of 2 days training... The e-learning team have been busy getting their head around the using Netmedia MyDesktop, MyClasses and MyPortfolio. Given the compressed nature of the training (double the time would have been sensible), there certainly was a feeling of being overloaded with information. The MyDesktop part (which schools will be encouraged to use initially) was fairly straight forward. It got a little more complicated, when we built our own efolios, which are placed in MyClasses. Not everyone was keen on the interface, as it wasn't easy and straight forward in all places. However, there is general agreement that the product is functional in prinicple and that it has enourmous potentential for schools and learners. I'm looking forward to discussing the specific applications for Norfolk schools with colleagues tomorrow. We will probably build up some examples to illustrate effective use for learning and other aspects of school life.
