Progress on the Training for Development Education module LEID – Clare Bentall This module will be run over 2 terms in Spring / Summer 2008. Achievements so far: • Outline of the basic content of the module, aims, learning outcomes etc and draft module proposal • Agreement on where the module will be located (temporarily) for next academic year. Matters unresolved • Validation process still to be completed. • Detailed planning of the individual online activities. Comments on Preel project activities • Blogging - this has been difficult due to the sensitive nature of negotiations around the module. • Using the resources – this will become more central to the process once we get to the detail of the activities that will be completed by students online.
