My contribution to the project work has had to take a back seat for the past 5 days or so as responsibilities regarding programme management and the creation of a programme document for our school's new Diploma in Applied Travel and Tourism (DATT) have taken priority.
The work for DATT is comprehensive - the document is printed and now awaits approval from Academic Approvals Committee (AAC) next Thursday. I have a meeting with Robyn Hogan from AAC to go over the procedure and any questions which are likely to arise.
I have also started the coordination of development work for this programme which is on a fast track as we start the programme on Feb 12.
Back to the Diploma in International Tourism. It has at times been difficult to know when to stop developing in one area. You keep finding new information and sources during your research that it is so tempting to rework what you have already completed. Trying hard not to do this and also time restraints have stopped this. I have nearly finished my section of the Tourism Industry but need a good run of at, which is hard when I am dealing with other pressing issues. Here is an example of using a template design for powerpoint presentations and publishing it on slideshare (the youtube of powerpoints) . Next week. In the meantime I have started on geography and will work on that this weekend.
I have had to put on hold our intended two day workshop but will have to dedicate next Friday to hopefully catching up with Sunshine (our designer) and Leigh (Educational Development Centre) so that we can go over the Blackboard set up. I have also been keeping an eye on enrollments as our programme has been under strategic and financial review - they are looking viable so that is good. In the meantime back to developing and taking some photos.
Cheers
