Update

Missed last weeks session unfortunately, as we were going to look at Photoshop and 'snagit'
Have been browsing You Tube more looking for videos that might be useful in teaching/revision sessions.
I bookmarked a few sites on del.icio.us - would like to have figured out how to download them to be able to use them on power point but failed miserably.
I forwarded a video to facebook which I sent to a couple of friends which was pretty straight forward - a first for me. I am definitely exploring more since I started with this project!
I did posted the You Tube sites on EMIT for the students to link to for revision - hopefully they found useful, as they have an assessment next week.
The students have been keen to use EMIT more and so I have been making more info available to them through this.
The interactive assessment I've been working on is coming along well.
The quiz-type questions are complete and the interactive diagrams hopefully loaded by tomorrow.
The diagrams use a drag & drop technique for labelling plus they break down like a puzzle and so have to be put back together piece-by-piece and then labels attached appropriately. LTC have done a great job.
I am much more aware of the specialised knowledge available to help with creating some great projects! I feel very inspired. And realise I do not have the time or expertise to do it all myself.
Course Genie appears to be another step forward for me, to load written info and include interactive activities/self-tests and short videos/ practice videos to view, and a glossary of terms......
