16. Time for action
- In small groups and working together, answer each question as
best you and your group can.
- After the allocated time, move from table to table attempting to
add to each previous groups responses.
18. Where to from here?
College ICT Committee will meet and
complete a first draft of a 2015 - 2017
eLearning Strategy. This will be shared with
all invited attendees for feedback and
Our aim to be one of the, if not the, most inclusive college in the country.
We run an integrated Alliance Model where support centre students are placed in determined mainstream classrooms for x hours per week.
