  1. Hi Everyone, I’m Les Henson and I have just returned from holidays and like many others I am overwelmed by so many emails. I am Senior Lecturer in Mission Studies at Tabor Victoria in the School of Theology and Context. Like Rika and Yr (Colleagues at Tabor), I am hoping to experiment with different types of blended learning. I have used Moodle for the past six years, regularly use both powerpoint and Youtube downloads, and currently trialing a student run website for learning and assessment. Yet overall I feel like a beginner to all of this. I am interested in using TEL in the classromm and for online students in an appropriate manner. I would like to learn to use a variety of new technological approaches and discover the appropriateness of each approach for the tasks at hand. For me its all about appropriateness and what actually enhances student learning.

    Warmly,

    Les
