    Dear Fiona,

    I am employed for two days a week, until July 2010 by Service Children’s Education in Germany, to help the primary schools in Hohne Garrison to implement their connected learning communities.

    With twenty five years’ experience in technology based learning, I am a passionate supporter of these communities and I am very keen to learn about the next generation of Uniservity’s learning platform.

    Who knows? I might be able to make some valuable suggestions; for example, about the inclusion of more voting facitilites, more emphasis on resource tagging and the problems that busy class teachers experience when they try to use the current cLc for the first time.

    Please feel free to take a good look around one of my school’s websites: http://www.montgomery-school.me.

    With warm regards,

    Steve

    Hi

    I work with a number of schools in our cluster helping them adopt their vle and start using it, as well as teaching the pupils what they can do. From what i can see this new product “life” would solve a lot of complaints i get. I would be very interested in using the beta vle. When will this be available? And what process do we have to go through to get this?

    Thanks

    Is the release date of Life still on track?
    My school is about to roll out Uniservity to staff and pupils (it is currently just serving as a website) and I would like to know if it’s worth training my staff and pupils to use the current interface. If the release date is still September 2010 then I would prefer to just wait.

      Yes – the release dates are still on track, and the team are making great progress. Life continues to be very exciting and we hope to have some more comprehensives Demonstrations ready for the new term.

      The September release is for Live Testing, with Migration Testing (where your current cLc learning platform migrates over to Life, bringing content, structure & users) in the Spring, and the Full release next Summer. We would advise therefore you do continue to use your cLc learning platform, rather than wait for the Full release.

      In terms of specific support for your current cLc use and more detailed information, I would advise contacting Rachel.Whittington@UniServity.Com who has oversight for East Sussex Schools.
