Following the highly successful 2009 series of Xerte Friday Online Sessions JISC TechDis will be offering a new series of online sessions to allow you to further explore the online Xerte toolkits. These sessions will cover a number of themes which will build on the past workshops and will provide ideas, guidance and training on using Xerte to produce effective, engaging and accessible resources and learning objects.
Full details of the sessions can be found in the timetable below. Choose which sessions you would like to attend and login to the meeting url on the appropriate day and time by following the joining instructions for these InstantPresenter meetings. These notes are designed to help you get the very most from the event. If you haven’t used InstantPresenter with us before it is worth familiarising yourself by performing a “system check” before the day – full details are here in the InstantPresenter Joining Instructions (doc - 101 KB).
