Issues and challenges
- Commonwealth and state funding visibility - DEEWR contract provides $1.6 for edna direct costs with a further state and territory contribution in the order of 10% to meet indirect edna expenses
- Fundamental design challenge for VLE in meeting both institution or the learner (personalization) needs, how to solve multiple identities across institutions
- Options for smart filtering that discriminate between different groups of users
- Positive working relationship with education.au over the years eg
jointly developed events schema
Advice and recommendations
- Education.au can play an important role in standards across sectors and jurisdictions. Investigate further ways states and territories can 'plug in or plug out' in a national distributed environment. Education.au contribution can be in repositories, search, VLEs, pedagogical models and advice
- Focus less on building separate new tools and more on supporting a national integrated infrastructure and frameworks
- Publish information about edna experience in collaborative practice, analysis of data, what does and doesn't work
- Review current and planned national repositories and how they
are connected - articulate the points of difference between
national and local repositories, edna, TLF, LORN
- Review current and planned national repositories and how they are connected - articulate the points of difference between national and loc
- Continue innovations role as a safe place for educators (and possibly students) to experiment with ability for teachers to personalize their environment to meet individual needs
- Meet regularly with education.au to address business change management and approaches to professional learning
