    Hi there

    Thanks for joining the West Coast group. I am intending to do a VLN PLD session on Thursday so hope to get a few more members!

    Kia ora Ray, thank you for joining the Leading Effective e-Learning group. It is envisioned that these groups will become a central hub for a community of like-minded educators - focused on growing e-learning leadership, to impact change for our priority learners.

    You might like to take a few moments to introduce yourself, tell us where you're from, share a photo or perhaps your mihi in this Southern thread [/discussion/view/827584].

    You might also be interested in conversations about 'what makes an e-learning leader' [/discussion/view/835077]. We'd love to hear your views.

    These are great ways to establish and connect a community online, so we'd love to hear from you. Ngā mihi nui, Tess :-)

    Kia ora Ray - Thank you for your comment on my BROfessionalism blog. I just thought I'd share some thoughts there, so appreciate that you've taken some ideas from it. Will catch up sometime f2f for a yarn. Thanks again

    Kia ora Ray and welcome to the VLN.

    I see you have begun joining groups, perhaps I can suggest some others for you.

    You might like to join the "Getting started on the VLN" group, here you will find a wealth of tips to help you get the most out of the VLN.

    Each fortnight we compile the e-learning round-up on the blog, with snippets of what's happening - you can read it here.[/blog/group/118255/all].

    Looking forward to working with you online.

    Ngā mihi nui, nā Catriona.
