Well - its been a pretty mad couple of weeks and i'm feeling a bit behind. Am offline for a week (biking around Gt Barrier Island with some mad gel friends of mine) so am hoping a late presntation from me will be ok as i've run right out of time this week!
My evaluation plan, however, is coming together quite nicely. Just needs to be negotiated and tidied up and added to here and there.
Essentially is a front end needs analysis - looking at
a. is there a need to redevelop the existing marine programme into an electronically delivered programme
b. if so - how would the design and delivery of this best meet the needs of key stakeholders and target audience
I'm using the first two steps of the model that i talked about last week (good suggestion thanks Bronwyn!)
OK- it's getting late and its been a very long day. Talk to you all in a couple of weeks!
All the best, R :}

- Hi everyone! I work as an independent education contractor. I worked for 10 years teaching Marine Studies at a regional polytechnic and have been 'out on my own' since 2004. Some of work specialises in marine and environmental education - i do things like create programmes, review, design and re-develop education resources and sometimes run programmes. I also do a range of tertiary education projects - programme reviews, feasibility studies, sustainability evaluations and advice on educaiton for sustainability. I am currently working part time as i have an 11 month old son called Finn :] I live in Papamoa with Finn and my husband Olaf. Aside from work and family, I love going on adventures and enjoy the outdoors. My other passtimes include off road running, biking, surfing, diving, photography (including the underwater sort!) sailing and ashtanga yoga! I am hoping that this course will further develop my understanding of quality e-learning and help me with my work in terms of both evaluating, creating and re-creating quality educaiton resources.... ummm... that's pretty broad really isn't it!

You are making good progress to have an evaluation plan shaping up. my suggestion is that instead of asking, "is there a need to redevelop the existing marine programme into an electronically delivered programme?" you ask the following:
How can the existing marine programme be re-developed using digital materials and electronic communication methods which will "best meet the needs of key stakeholders and the primary target audience"?
The reason being, if the answer to a. is no - then your eLearning needs analysis is stumped. Also in the digital age of education, and so you can increase your target audience and the level flexibility for the programme, don't you think some form of digital material and electronic means of communication is essential.
Otherwise cyber pirates may "sink your boat" so to speak and "capture all your crew". Sorry I couldn't help myself. :)
