Distance Education Resources

I have devel­oped a few dis­tance edu­ca­tion resources for staff at the Insti­tute for Com­mu­nity Inclu­sion and thought that some of you might find them use­ful. Enjoy and please let me know if you have any feed­back. The resources include an overview of dis­tance edu­ca­tion, under­stand­ing list­servs as well as some exam­ples of streamed, cap­tioned videos.

In addi­tion, I am cur­rently eval­u­at­ing three course man­age­ment sys­tems– Moo­dle, ATu­tor and Prometheus (now owned by Black­board). I have setup a sam­ple course in each of the three sys­tems, if any­one is inter­ested in look­ing at the courses, let me know . I would also love to hear about the expe­ri­ences that any of you have had work­ing with any of these systems.
