<p class=MsoNormal> A colleague at my school alerted me to this great resource:<o:p></o:p></p>

(FCIT) has been a leader in working with educators to integrate technology into
the curriculum<span lang=EN-AU><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>It has a slightly different criteria set to the epotential

<p class=MsoNormal>Both models align slightly differently with the definition
of “embedding eLearning “ -- See <a

with videos of how each stage has been addressed with videos and excellent
supplementary material.<o:p></o:p></p>
