Comment on Hortykim looks at T&L Innovation Fund by Leigh

ok, let me get this straight..

We are proposing to start a Summer School for Horticulture.

The summer school will support people wanting to tick and/or learn the following units in courses:

Plant Names Demystified
How to Stay Safe at Work
I Just Bought a Chainsaw So How do I take Care of It?
Propagation
Introduction to Permaculture
Hydroponics

This looks like a good mix between catching the interest of the home gardener and to some extent the professional.

You would set all these up with online resources and self paced learning schedules.

You would run short face to face courses so that people using the resources have an opportunity to get hands on and assessment.

These course might lead into normal year programmes

Is this right?

You have $5000 how would you spend it?

Another blog post?

Hi Kim this is an excellent blog. Students are all impressed. I’ve added it to my blog for the second years for their course which looks at using web2:0 technology in practice. http://participationinoccupation1.blogspot.com/

Hi Kim, I’ve been looking through your blog and it’s great. I like all the videos. I’ve added a link on BB for the stage ones. They’ve all been enjoying your Hort sessions. Talk soon.

Hi, your blog looks really interesting.

I’m not familiar with slideshare but want to give you some feedback. Your main blog page, which currently has several vids/slideshows on it, takes a very long time to load. There was a long wait before I got the RSS feed to subscribe to. On dial-up that is. But it would also be off-putting for someone with a broadband data limit.

Can you get some IT input on this? There are alot of people in NZ still on dial-up or who have broadband limits.

Also, the photos with click to play underneath just disappear when I click on them.

Thanks for not putting the visuals in your RSS feed!

Hey Kim, if you load the image to Flickr, or to Wikieducator, then people will be able to click to see the full version. I guess its a PDF and that’s why you loaded it to Slideshare.. good thinking. Wikieducator can take PDFs and so can your wordpress blog.
