  2. Good morning. It is a rather late start to blogging but better late than never.
    I am enjoying working through the ADDIE model as it is systematic and embraces all angles of designing a course and appreciate that it is not confined to an e learning course.

    My attempt for this assignment is to focus on a clinicl theme of Diabete Mellitus that is an existing part of the 3rd year medical curriculum.
    This theme carries through the year in the form of whole class lectures.
    Furthermore it requires the students to integrate different aspects of patient interview and clinical examination,applied pathophysiology and ethical dilemmas encountered in the process in a form of a case study.
    A reflection on the learning through this experience completes the case study.

    I have deliberatley presented the theme in the 3 parts above and hope to work through it finding the best approach for each of the segments.

    I will be back here as soon as I have progressed ......

  3. Good morning. I'm back after a weekend of serious reading and progressed a little further. this is merely the summary of my thoughts.


    whole class lectures: podocast the lectures to augment the learning prior to the lecture and use the lecture time as discussion session for face to face interaction.
    Case study:at this stage for next academic year each student is to submit this assignment via email to the facilators. this is a gigantic step forward to going paperless and crossing fingers it is successful.
    Reflection: i think a blog can be incoporated for reflecting on learning.

    I like the idea of a VLE into which all the above can be possible.
    I am not sure if this institution will be able to support these ideas and so now im off to the IT department.......
