At the Getting Started workshop for the 2009 Tasmanian Elearning Innovations projects at Campbelltown yesterday, Darren Lewin-Hill joined us via Skype to provide some pointers on preparing casestudies.

Darren suggested we use a series of questions to frame our casestudy development.

  1. Why did you become involved in this Elearning Innovation Project?
  2. Why did you choose to use elearning?
  3. What challenges were you hoping to address?
  4. What are the different roles within the project team?
  5. What process did you use for selecting the technology you used? How did this fit with existing systems?
  6. What level of engagement have learners had in the project?
  7. If you had to do it again, what would you do differently? What would you do the same?
  8. What was the web of relationships around the project? What did they contribute to the project outcomes?

And I would add these questions too…

  1. What did the evaulation tell you about the success of the project?
  2. How will you take the outcomes of this project forward?
  3. How long did the project take you? Was this more or less time than originally estimated?
  4. What skill sets would another team need to achieve a similar project?
  5. Would you recommend other teaching areas adopt your outputs and processes? How would you suggest they approach it?
