Hi Sparkered - Thanks for the link to Leigh's webcast. Leigh is doing some amazing work in promoting innovative ways of utilising WikiEducator for teaching and learning. We're inspired by his energy and his promotion of the benefits that educators derive from collaborative authoring of resources for learning.
WikiEducator's strength lies in its potential for Educators around the world to work collaboratively on learning materials for their learners. There are a few new developments which we will implement on WikiEducator in the near future - which may be of interest to colleagues working in the VET sector: 1. Wiki to pdf functionality - This will enable teachers to generate print masters of learning resources developed collaboratively on WikiEd. Perhaps this will encourage a project similar to Handouts4Teachers for the TVET sector (see: http://www.wikieducator.org/Handouts4Teachers ) 2. The implementation of threaded discussion functionality on WIkiEducator's talk pages. This will make it easier for educators collaborating on the development of shared resources. Feel free to start a page node on WikiEducator for Australia's TAFE community to share ideas and thoughts about how WikiEducator could support your work. Apart from content development on WIkiEd - it is also used as a hub for planning projects collaboratively. Chat to you soon.
