the eStrategy mentions embedded practice (as opposed to undeveloped) it includes "Embedded The site has developed innovative approaches to the sharing of effective practice, coaching and mentoring within and beyond the site and makes use of technology to achieve this. Child and student, peer and/or community mentors are an essential component. Organised and planned processes are in place to support and enhance teaching and learning activities and opportunities." and "Resources - Virtual Environments All children and students and staff contribute to virtual learning environments, complementing and extending teaching, learning and the curriculum. There is provision for children and students to create their own personal learning spaces. Virtual learning environments are fully integrated with the site's learner and curriculum management systems." Worth checking out ... also have a look at EdCap (Educational Capabilities) 4 phases including Online learning across all phases.

I'm wanting to pop a couple of tips and trick tutorials in this group as well. Also I'm thinking possibly about 20-30 max tags will make this group more effective .. not sure on this one.

I'm hoping to add some basic/advanced tutorials to help make this group function as effectively as possible. I'm also thinking that maybe 20-30 tags will be much more efficient than a multitude

"Children and young people need to be empowered to keep themselves safe - this isn't just about a top-down approach. Children will be children - pushing boundaries and taking risks. At a public swimming pool we have gates, put up signs, have lifeguards and shallow ends, but we also teach children how to swim."
Please discuss.
