This goal of this group is to investigate the suitablity of Facebook as a teaching tool. Our purpose is to better engage learners by utilising their strengths and capabilities.

CAE and Interact Australia are embarking on a collabarative project to produce an e-learning workforce learning and development package for disability support workers employed in the Victorian non-government disability sector.

Anecdotal evidence gathered by Interact and the CAE indicates that many disability service organisations, particularly small organisations, have difficulty accessing quality training and need to join with other organisations to make workforce learning and development viable.

Broadly, instructional design is about designing learning experiences. While some theories of instructional design incorporate the online environment - many were developed with other environments in mind.

Join Melanie Worrall to explore different instructional design approaches, how they can be applied in an online environment, what tools are available and how to appropriate theories for your learners.

This project focused on the development of e learning strategies, tools and resources to further enhance current skills, knowledge and expertise in manual and computer aided pattern making processes for our Diploma Fashion students.  Click on the following link to access final case study and project progress with links to relevant supporting documentation:

Learning Research and Design (LR&D) has long been involved in the development of multimedia and print‐based materials, competency mapping and course accreditation and re‐accreditation. LR&D’s team of instructional designers, editors, multimedia developers and desktop publishers, and access to content experts, has contributed to the development of high quality products, most of which are currently being used nationally, and the successful completion of numerous projects.

Our goal is to develop an Blended delivery model which will help to overcome common barriers to e-learning.  We have introduced e-learning into our Certificate IV in Training and Assessment Course.  If graduates of this course could be employed at YNH Services we would eventually develop a pool of e-learning enabled Tutors who would be equipped to pass these skills on to others and so embed a culture of e-learning in our organisation.

Welcome to a support page for teachers working with Toolbox materials. This page has a collection of resources in a range of formats that will demonstrate approaches and techniques for discovering, customising and deploying Toolbox and LORN resources. It is worth noting that these are techniques and approaches can be used with any webpage based resource and so have much wider application that Toolboxes.

Please feel free to share you own approach and techniques with everyone via the comments section!
