<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi Litsa,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> I do worry about some of these statements in
the job descriptions. Eg. <FONT face=ArialMT size=3><FONT face=ArialMT size=3>
<P align=left>"To identify new and emerging computer based learning technologies
capable of enhancing the quality of the educational program and outcomes for all
students in the College ".</P>
<P align=left>Am I missing something here ?</P></FONT></FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The poor elearning coordinator has to
identify w</FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>hat emerging technologies will
enhance the educational programs of ALL students:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> 1. Integral calculus in maths</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> 2. Appreciation of art </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> 3. Robotics programming</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> 4. English literacy</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> 5. Analysis of geographical features in
landscapes and satellite data</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> 6. CAD/CAM in technology</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> should I go on ? </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Can such a person ever be qualified to identify
such emerging technologies in ALL educational programs ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Frankly whoever writes these job descriptions does
not understand what an elearning coordinator can and can't do. As long as the
word embed is in the statement somehow it makes it ok.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It is the job of the learning area manager and
level manager (VELS speak) to identify the technology and then ask the elearning
coordinator to assist with its implementation, staff PD and monitoring of
uptake. The elearning coordinator has to understand the network, how software
can be deployed and how it can be used and applied. If he or she does not then
it is best to just let the network manager do this part of the job.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Some controversial statements or really a statement
of how things can work efficiently with true successful outcomes ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Happy to discuss and expand. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Best Wishes</FONT></DIV>
