 Training Course Development for Teachers

[Geraldine Raftery]

Hi, if this is aimed at teachers I feel it is far too basic.  Perhaps what might need to be looked at are ways of integrating ICT into regular lessons, network and server issues or coding…just an opinion and feedback from colleagues, G

 any idea how to backup a server?

John Moore <johnw...@gmail.com> Jun 19 04:17AM -0700  

Hi,
We've just got our new server running and going well so far....
But I was just thinking if we should back it up to an external hard-drive
or something so that if something happens we won't have to start from
scratch.
The content wouldn't be the main thing but the
settings/permissions/users/etc would be the important stuff for us to back
up.
 
Does anyone know a simple and inexpensive way to do this?
We running a windows 2008 r2 standard server.
Thanks in advance.
John

Data backup/restore is quite different from a bare metal backup/recovery.
 
Windows Server 2008 R2 will give you basic free functionality.

 Training Course Development for Teachers

Steven Camara <dal...@gmail.com> Jun 19 06:57AM -0700  

Hi All,
 
Volunteers have recently offered Camara Ireland some time and resources to
develop a new teacher training course.
 
We want to create a course that will support teachers and schools with some
of the basic technical barriers that prevent them from successfully using
ICT in the classroom. This course will be aimed at ‘non-techy’ people. It
will be designed to equip the participant with the key basic information to
get the most out of ICT resources in their school or classroom.
 
We want to make sure we are making a course that is relevant. I have created
an open Google Doc here
<https://docs.google.com/a/camara.ie/document/d/1ymCIZhCHNBs7pCQuNmIJ0prh4RK1_8GtKz-V4vCnFL8/edit>with
a basic outline. It would be fantastic if you could have a look and add in
other areas. For example, if you are the 'go to techy' person in your
school, what are the simple fixes that you repeatedly have to help
colleagues with etc.?!
 
Thank you in advance,
Steven

Hi John.
That server version come with its own backup software all you need is a USB
disk large enough to do a complete backup, when you go through the process
you can schedule a regular daily/weekly backup, the software will configure
the USB disk and once formatted you will not be able to use it for other
storage
 
Have fun

Methinks there are still many many teachers who need to learn what is outlined here Ger....

I agree with Geraldine, something a little more advanced and specific. But rather than a training course, maybe just a meet up to discuss those issues and see what comes out of it. I'd love to see other people's schools server setup and get some feedback on ours.

[Miriam Judge]

Agree with mags... Many teachers still struggling with the basics..so this course will be ideal for many... Although more advanced courses Always welcome and needed for more advanced users .

Hi, 

I would agree with Mags and Miriam. When we were initially planning SmartVET, we assumed a much higher level of knowledge and skills among teachers than was actually the case in practice. What worked for us was to create training that drew on the mixed levels in the groups and enabled teachers to collaborate during the training, working together to share ideas, create resources using skills at a range of levels, and problem solving together. 

The SmartVET project outcomes are available free to use and adapt to anyone at www.smartvetproject.eu thanks to Leonardo da Vinci Lifelong Leanring funding.

As a prim teacher, I think this skills set is pretty perfect for the majority of teacher that I know. For anyone who is tagged as the IT expert this course would be a great relief.

Thanks all for the feedback on this, it is all very helpful.

We've had some great suggestions in the open google doc too. It has also been an interesting experiment in letting an open doc loose on the world!

Steven.
