Some new features: courses, objectives and learning-opportunities
23-January-2006
You may notice a new link in the main navigation tabs at the top of the pages: Courses. Click that link to see a list of the available 'courses'. If you are logged-in, that listing will also include a button for adding a new course.
Each 'course' consists of a list of learning objectives and an occupation. The intention is that those learning objectives are appropriate as a course as part of advancing one;s skill and knowledge for that occupation.
For each course, members can post a 'learning-opportunity' ( see the link at the top-right of the page when logged-in and viewing a course's details). A learning opportunity is intended to note that some of the learning-objectives in a course can be met by an organisation. A time-span and contact name / contact details are noted, along with the organisation's name.
For each learning-objective in that course, it is noted whether the objective is 'represented' in this learning opportunity fully, partially or not at all.
Can project partners please provide some feedback on whether these features address the requirements of the project. KnowNet created this functionality in response to a detailed feature request as interpreted by Graham Attwell.
We hope to refine and improve these features, and to integrate them with individual professional-development-profiles and web-logging for potential learners.
If you have comments about the new features, or about the conceptual architecture they reflect, please either add a comment to this news item, or email Mike ( mike @ theknownet . com )
