Last week was a busy week for the project. On Thurs Rob Bristow the programme manager from JISC and Will Allen from Netskills came to Stafford to meet us. The project is one of a set of 6 that were funded by this call with one at Ravensbourne College of Design and Communication in Kent being very similar. Rob and Will were both keen on all the projects working together so watch this space.
On Wed Chris and I met up with Glyn Skerrett from our sciences faculty. Glyn has lots of experience of validations and is happy to share his thoughts and experience with us. He also is willing to join in with the NING Community of Practice, hopefully we'll be able to persuade him to join us as an "expert". Yesterday Chris and I met another senior member of our academic staff from AMD who also gave us his view of the validation processes and we have started thinking about what a COP can offer experienced staff. I have a few more staff to meet to find out what potential users of the COP want but it is difficult at this time of year.
I contacted the SURF team and they are very interested in the project, I have been invited to their Curriculum Group meeting in Oct so I can meet the college representatives and get their views - it should be interesting!
