WHAT ABOUT
YOUTUBE?
Lecturer: “I’m amazed at the extent of videos relating directly to the topics I teach in Painting...it would be easy to use them in the classroom as a lot of our old teaching videos are on cassette and are now poor quality & outdated. “
And other user-
generated content?

Skills of the VET Teacher/Trainer
Callan and Clayton: E-assessment and the AQTF: Bridging the divide between practitioners and auditors

SCENARIO
400 gigalitres of water per year have to be put back into the Murray River if it is to be a healthy, sustainable system. This will have social and economic impacts on all towns along the river. How do we do this? What questions does each town need to address in order to achieve this goal?
