Additional links and resources to help with your application

• SA E-learning Strategy - this website provides detail about the VET e-learning strategy in SA (Hint: it would be good to show where your project fits into this strategy).
   
•  Do some research on the Profile Search page to search for previous Innovations projects in your own sector or industry area. Also check out the 'Final Word' forum where last year's SA teams talk about the journey and outcomes of their 2009 Innovations projects.(Hint:  don't just replicate what somebody has already done without showing where you have learned from their experiences and/or are linking with them.)

• Read articles drawn from previous projects:

• Toolbox site - this is where you will find heaps of ready-made content. (Hint: Don't apply for funds to re-create what is already here. And if you are using any of the learning objects within your project, then explain how)
   
• E-learning Innovations Toolkit - resources you will need if you are planning on creating a product i.e. website, CD etc.  (Hint: all projects receive assistance with the use of this toolkit but it would be good to indicate that you are aware of needing to meet the necessary e-standards.)
   
• Designing e-learning - a useful website to assist with the design of e-learning (Hint:  Check out the 'Types of e-Learning' under Tour 1 - it is highly recommended that you identify which type you will be using...and why.)
   
• Framework Resource Centre - a place to find many useful resources (Hint:  would be great if you could show how any of these are incorporated into your project)
   
• Practical Guide to e-learning for Industry - includes a guided tour for anyone in business (Hint:  For anyone from business/industry, becoming familiar with this site is a must.  Good to mention how you can use it in your project.)
