Trialling the software

We now all have access to the forum and the mediawiki and can access these from home.

The forum is getting easier to use and we now need to work on how to manage it. Some staff are using the forum as 'tutors' and some as 'students'. The tutors now need to split the users into groups for the rest of the trialling

Editing the wiki isn't as hard as it first seemed. I've created a page for the eCommunications FdA Project and will then put up a general explanation along with links to further pages - one for JISC, one for SYeLP and others as required

The blogging is fine - the only problem here, as with all the trialling is getting people, me included to use the software regularly.

I'm discussing with Kate the other 'tutor' if we can now give people student activities to trial in their reflective blogs so that we can see how some of our proposed content will work.

Paul Warren - the College's senior programmer is meeting with us on 18 November to discuss with us our expereince of trialling and how to move things forward
