Hello there,

 

I've attached the draft document with proposed changes to the website.
Please let me know what you think. We are on a very tight schedule, so can
you let me have any comments by 19th September. 

 

We are also working with LASA and Media Trust to streamline and simplify the
online forums. This means we will be getting rid of the regional forums as
they are currently underused. There will be a general forum section which
anyone can post in, so if the situation arises that there is a specific
issue to your region then that will be the place to post.

 

I'd also be grateful if you could let me have any comments or suggestions
about the website, and anything you can think of to help improve how the
website can assist you in your work.

 

Feel free to email me or give me a call.

 

Kind regards,

 

Michael

Just for information and something possibly we should be using more of
ourselves when sharing documents for comment for the South West ICT Group!

 

In my other role as a circuit rider, lots of local orgs have come to me for
support about using Google Docs for their collaborative working recently.  

So, if you want to learn more, head over to my blog on the link below and
enjoy the quick mini-video on Google Docs to understand more.  We should
really be using this ourselves too..

	E-learning Event : Friday 12th October, The Create Centre, Bristol
Message-ID: <E1IXmfJ-0006Cq-CN@chutney.psand.net>

Hi all
 
This event is principally targeted at members of the SW ICT Group and the SW
Workforce Development group - both of which are working groups of the
regional Infrastructure Development Partnership (IDP). It was agreed earlier
in the summer that the interest in development of e-learning solutions (as
expressed by many organisations) was a good focus for a joint meeting at
which knowledge-sharing, discussion and presentation of case studies would
stimulate interest and potentially lead to some collaborative working within
the region to develop sector-focussed e-learning solutions. 
 
So far the plans for the event include : 
 
- Date : Friday 12th October 2007
 
- Venue : the Create Centre, Bristol (Smeaton Road,BRISTOL, BS1 6XN). Room
2A - with thanks to Voscur for hosting this event. 
 
- Timing : starting with networking from 11.30am and then lunch and
presentations/discussion from 1pm (until 3pm)
 
- Presentations 
        - Chris Gaine from Single Parent Network - experiences of developing
a Moodle site
        - Ian Dunn from Learning Curve (Swindon) - experiences of developing
a Moodle site
        - Exeter CVS - Pea-Pods system a CMS-driven portal for learning
support (awaiting confirmation)
 
I am still inviting interest from any other organisation with experience in
e-learning to come along so please encourage anyone you know to get in touch
with me as soon as possible. 
 
I have also invited along two other regional champions with an interest in
e-learning solutions. (East Midlands and Yorkshire). 
 
I have invited examples of good practice from around the UK which can be
demonstrated, as well as any current research or background to the
discussions which I can circulate to attendees in advance. Again, if you
know of anyone who might be able to participate in this preparatory work
then please do ask them to contact me. 
 
Please let me know if you would like any other specific items covered by the
agenda for this meeting. 
 
Regards

Subject: Regional cross-sector case studies



Good morning Regional ICT Champions!

 

In my never ending quest to bring together good examples of cross-sector
working (namely corporate and voluntary), I'd be really grateful if you
could let me know of any such examples in your region.

 

In an effort to make this as easy as possible, I attach a pro forma to
complete and return (I think this makes it easier).

 

I'm keen to get some regional input into this piece of work so your
contributions would be invaluable.

 

These case studies will be used at events, feature in hub bulletins and on
the website.  If sufficient case studies are received, I'd like to create a
publication similar to the New Media Case Studies.

 

Anyway, please contact me if you have any questions and many thanks in
advance.

 

With kind regards

Subject: Update on ICT Hub Circuit Rider training and quality standards
project

Hi all

I wanted to update you on the ICT Hub Circuit Rider training and quality
standards project and the direction in which we see this work developing.
This mailing is being sent out to those who attended the training and
standards event on 17th July and those who were interested but couldn't make
it on that day.

Firstly, thanks to everyone who came along to NCVO and all who contributed
via Survey Monkey.  If you haven't already seen the report from the day it
can be downloaded from http://www.lasa.org.uk/circuitriders/training.shtml 

Following the day, we have looked at the information and opinions gathered
and have come up with following immediate plan of action:

*	Formation and initial meeting in November of a working group to
oversee and advise on progress
*	Lasa to formulate a draft "logic model" to outline objectives,
outcomes, outputs and indicators. This is based on the outcomes of the
scenarios exercise carried out on the 17th July.
*	Updating and issuing of Principles for Circuit Riders to work to
*	Updating and reworking of benchmark ICT Standards for VCS
organisations (currently being commissioned)

This will provide us with a basis for formulating the skill set necessary to
be an effective circuit rider and to give a quality service to our clients.
In turn this will lead to the formulation of appropriate training.

The group will meet initially on November 8th at Lasa to discuss the various
issues mentioned above. We plan to start at around 12.30 with lunch and work
through the afternoon. An outline draft agenda for the meeting is:

*	Roles and responsibilities (Lasa)
*	Role of the working group
*	Working on draft logic model
*	Working on programmatic elements: principles and standards
proposals

We currently envisage that the group will then operate on a virtual, online
basis. If you are interested in being part of the working group, please
email me at iruneckles at lasa.org.uk 

We will be able to pay necessary expenses to enable you to attend the
meeting.

We look forward to hearing from you and thanks for your interest and input.
Even if you feel that you are unable to commit to the group, we will
obviously keep you and the wider Circuit Rider community informed.

Kind regards

Ian
