Comment on Do we still need a blogging platform? by Robyn Jay

Robyn Jay — Sun, 28 Apr 2013 05:25:08 +0000

Here’s a useful post re the benefits of writing every day which of course blogs enable (as opposed to what I would label ‘postings’ that you do in FB etc)

Comment on Do we still need a blogging platform? by Robyn Jay

Robyn Jay — Thu, 25 Apr 2013 23:40:18 +0000

My own blog stands testament to the fact that maintaining a blog presence requires a lot of time, effort, and a clear purpose. Its easy in our day to day working lives to get caught up in demanding but mundane bureaucratic tasks, to the detriment of that which should be forefront of our professional educator duties- critical reflection and leadership.
Like ALL tech tools (incl Moodle) a blogging platform wont serve all purposes. However as far as tools go that enable sustained writing, considered critical reflection, opportunity for engagement and debate, and connection with the real world, you cant go past blogs, and of course WordPress enables much more than just that.
I’ve needed some inspiration to get writing again. Hopefully this is it!

Comment on 2012 TAFE Managers Association Conference – Leesa Wheelahan by Business Aid Centre

Business Aid Centre — Mon, 20 Aug 2012 06:30:13 +0000

Thanks so much for uploading this podcast. I am preparing a research article on the topic Government funding and where it is lacking and came across this podcast. Leesa’s segment has really helped understand the current tertiary education policies, government support and how learning centres like TAFE and other supporting organisations definitely need more assistance from the government. TAFE is playing a very integral part in the education and training segment and as a result expectations to deliver are hence high. To meet these increased demands or expectations, means to improve existing infrastructure with necessary assistance.

Thanks again for your wonderful presentation Leesa.
Kind regards,

Becca Williams

Well…two years too late…but finally understand why you so generously share so much Stephan.

I recently had a discussion with my class about Creative Commons licences and Copyright. It was interesting to me to find out that you had chosen to use the Attribution 2.0 Generic licence and to read about the results of your sharing and the satisfaction it brings.

I found this resource and your comments inspiring. Thank you.

Can you please add the name Kellie Mortimer to the list of Presenters. There is a picture that includes 6 speakers, but only 5 are mentioned.

You may also want to change the name from Presenter to Presenters.

Comment on Hot Topic Conversations: Workforce Development Guarantee @ TAFE NSW – Sydney Institute by GK

GK — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 00:21:56 +0000

Bill, perhaps you should take note of this paragraph from Appendix 3 of the latest version of the DET Code of Conduct:

“… Resign from your position where no other options are workable …. or you prefer this course of action…”

Comment on Hot Topic Conversations: Workforce Development Guarantee @ TAFE NSW – Sydney Institute by Bill

Bill — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 23:33:18 +0000

the only guarantee is there is no guarantee in this Institute- what do hr actual do it seems to be they are solely reactionary not proactive- hr by name not by deeds.

Comment on Sculpture by the Sea 2009 by May

May — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 01:02:08 +0000

Bondi beach is famous as one of the top 10 beaches in the world, and attracts a lot of people from all the world to visit here just like the video is showing. So I think it is absolutely a good choice to hold the exhibition, Sculpture By the Sea, on Bondi beach. Tourists who visit Bondi beach around 1st of November enjoy the big event and make the exhibition well-known spreading the word. Meanwhile, the beach is decorated by these art works, which make the view of the beach much more beautiful.
