Have been working on the core of the diploma within the tour guiding taster section. Its really interesting as Karen (our tour guide from Queenstown) has provided some great information - so its been all about where to put it under the umbrella of unit standards. She has listed performance criteria eg. Unit 5678 PC 1.2 in some instances which is great but I have been trying to sort which of the information should be retained here in the core or go onto the specialist tour guiding area. Which is why I put this photo of containers at a Tunisia market on this posting.
I have decided (news for Leigh) I would like Leigh to provide the t&t team with a visual presentation of what we have been doing and where we are going, before the end of the semester. I don't think they are reading this blog and it is extremely difficult to get us all together for a regular meeting on development.
I will continue to work on the tour guiding core which has to be completed within two weeks - am starting to look at teaching resources and some lesson plans. The difficulty is finding a good stretch of uninterrupted time where you can really get into it.

No worries Hillary :) I'll be glad to do that. Thanks for the update. Let me know when and if you find Unit Standards for the core so I can add them to the wiki just for reference sake...
Have you had a look at the diagram I made for the work we might do with the wiki? Perhaps I'll talk to that when you get me in front of your colleagues...
Also - Helen from the Learning Centre is having a 1 hour show and tell about whos doing what in a wiki on Wednesday - 1pm. Hope you can make it... you now her office, downstairs in F block...
