Update

Claire, myself and Steve McCabe my 'Blended Learning Manager' from James Watt had a very informative visit to Dumfries & Galloway College. Duncan Gillespie showed us the community blogs and individual e-portfolios they use with groups of students. It was really inspiring, although some of the technical jargon I didn't fully understand, I realised there are ways round this. I am continuing to work with Steve at James Watt to implement some form of e-portfolio.

Duncan and Robert Brown from Dumfries came up last week to give a further demonstration on e-portfolios to my Hairdressing & Beauty advisory group at SFEU. We had a great session and many questions asked. The members of the group present seemed very interested and hopefully inspired to take similar on board.

The advisory group also had a training session from Colin and Tony on Sametime web conferencing again with many questions and many laughs along the way! Raising your hand comes instantly to mind.

We discussed as a group, ideas we would like to have included in the forth coming SQA/SFEU Hairdressing & Beauty events. The group were very supportive of the network and enthusiastic of it's future which was great for me.
