Phase 1 training

    connections.

    notebook computer.
  • LS team would like to provide a variety of
    flexible configurations of delivery - TBC

    spreading the 2.5 days over 2 or 3 weeks,
    breaking up the modules and spreading them over
    several weeks.

Phase 1 training continued
  • It may be useful to spread the training over a
    few weeks to enable participants to consolidate
    their learning in between sessions.
  • If possible Gayle and I will train simultaneously
    across the region and link up parts of the
    training via Video Conferencing team teaching
    some modules.
  • Nothing has been finalised.
  • Suggestions and views would be greatly
    appreciated.
  • This training will not commence until term 3,
    after week 3.
  • Participants to the course will be requested to
    have first completed the Promethean online free
    Level 1 Foundation Skills course.
  • On the 24th June all the first phase school
    principals and their learning partners will be
    attending a conference.
