D2L+Trainer+Questions

Return to D2L Trainer Resource Page
For next week’s training, some of the DOE trainers had the original course (created the first week with Craig) that is not populated with the same components (content, quizzes, and other items) as the new training courses. We recommend that new courses are created for them based on the master template course.


 * REQUESTS:**
 * Trainers requested a “terms of use” or “net-etiquette” for all students outlining acceptable behavior within the Desire2Learn platform. Here is some helpful information/resources on NETIQUETTE:
 * Albion Netiquette Quiz: __[]__.
 * Edutopia: __[]__.
 * Study Guides and Strategies: __[]__.
 * Yale University: __[]__.
 * University of Kansas: __[]__.


 * **Request**– participants wanted a place to share tips and tricks with each other. Recommendation, create a course and enroll all the DOE teachers in this course so you can leverage not only the discussions but also the other tools available to you.
 * By Monday, all trainers will be enrolled in the course, Desire2Learn Training and Support Materials.
 * **Request** - Script updates i.e. Discussions tool – review message settings - message list style. Grid style vs reading style


 * QUESTIONS:**
 * **How will they access help documentation for the platform? Will they be enrolled in the Desire2Learn Community or will you be downloading the HTML files and hosting locally (D2L platform or wiki?)**
 * There will be a link from the home page to the documentation and tutorials for teachers. Also by Monday, all trainers will be enrolled in the course, Desire2Learn Training and Support Materials.
 * **Has it been decided how you will be structuring the Learning Repository. As an example, will teachers have access only to a repository for their school or will there be a single large repository?**
 * There will be a repository for each school and one for the whole iLearn program. We will link to several external repositories and we have plans to develop a vetted LOR to highlight the best of the best across the DOE.
 * **Will participants have access to their training course in September 2011?** No
