Skilling up Skilling up - learning about e-learning by Clive Shepherd E-learning provides some exciting new possibilities for the training department, but to really take advantage of these will, in most cases, require a radical review of available competencies and an up-skilling programme aimed at the principle job roles of e-learning manager, developer and e-tutor. In this article, Clive Shepherd looks at the skills needed to make e-learning a success, at the issues involved in bringing these skills in-house, and at the opportunities currently available in the UK for training in e-learning skills. ContentsNew skills - who needs them?What skills? New skills - who needs them?

Phonedeck Glean Comparison Search: An Information Literacy research tool to compare search results for different opinions Learn What You Want, Teach What You Love The idea for MentorMob sprouts from the backgrounds of Kris Chinosorn and Vince Leung.
