Scheme (style)

Then I can change the style - put in an alternative colour scheme. I would love to explore this further.

The problem arose when a colleague asked if I knew Flash. I didn't. Thank goodness. It's a real time user!

But more rumours that people didn't like to use Course Genie. Just the appearance. But this can easily be changed using alternative colours - Schemes that are in the Course Genie menu.

And it just coincided with an example that I had (onscreen!) that had used a different scheme. So - this is going to be the showcase for this example!

(It's not just the appearance that needs to be considered when creating a learning object. The interactions need to be considered too. What does the student gain from doing this? How long would it take to create?)

Course Genie Name Change

Just had an email from Wimba to say that Course Genie has had its name changed. From next week it will be called Wimba Create but there won't be any changes to the software until later next year. Difficult to realise this in my write-up. Currently the styles begin with cg. I'll probably need a major edit to the learning object that I produce.
