Editor's Notes

  1. Web conferencing to boost employability in the 21st C:‘Student4WebES’Ellen Lessnere-Learning CoordinatorEmma Procter-LeggProject Manager‘Students for Webinar Employability Skills was a Jisc funded project which ran at Abingdon and Witney College with L3 (equivalent to A levels) students from October 2012-April 2013. But first, can we check that you are happy with the definition of web conferencing? (Next slide)
  2. Why are we checking that you are happy with the term, Web conferencing/webinar? Our initial assessment of 256 L3 students showed that only 4% of them could define what a webinar was![Activity: What experience do you have of webinars [video conferencing] ?1 None or very few2 I have participated in a number of webinars3 I have presented in a webinar Circle the number and hold up your paperThank you.A brief definition might be that it is an online session which can be used for meetings or teaching and done through a platform which generally has the ability, along with video and audio, to display information on a whiteboard, allow ‘chat’, application and websharing and audience response for 3-300 people depending on the platform. Recording the session is a key feature of a good webinar platform. (next slide)
  3. What were our aims for this project?The rationale for theorginal project was to recognise that today’s students will need some different skills to be fit for work in the 21st C.The aim of the project is to develop employability skills for L3 students in relation to using video conferencing and webinars. Students were trained to use a webinar platform (Blackboard Collaborate and Cisco WebEx) and how to set up to run a webinar. We ran and recorded 8 short 10 minute webinars with local employers around the theme of ‘What does an employer want from an employee?” In addition, we produced:A student created poster of the ‘top tips’ around running a webinarA student created ‘top tips’ from the employers on key skills for getting an interview and jobA student led conference, supported by the JISC RSC SE, on the theme of employability skills using video conferencing and webinars.(Next slide)
  4. Student webinar skills equals employabilitySometimes simple ideas work well. We hope that we can demonstrate what a professionally valuable skill running a webinar is in the 21st century – from interviews skills through to work meetings and in all levels of education. (Exam boards are now using webinars instead of asking staff to travel long distances for a day’s training).There were a range of ‘soft’ employment skills gained/reinforced through working on the project- Reliability, time management, team workand working with a range of employers.(Next slide)
  5. Evolution of our recognition of employability skills for the 21st centuryWe want to comment briefly on this because it is important to remember that education and training is about teaching people what they will find useful and not assuming that they will learn it by themselves or with their ‘mates’. If a skill is important, it needs to be recognised and taught. I’m sure everyone here can reflect on their own education and where it might have been improved if someone taught them how to write an essay and how to take an exam instead of assuming that these skills could be picked up.As a normal FE college with 5 sites and we offer a broad range of courses – SLDD, BTEC, Community Education, A level and Foundation degrees. This is the digital age, and we have a responsibility to make sure that our students have digital employability skills for the 21st century. Research (I can give details if anyone is interested later) shows that many students use technology well but they are very dependent on their tutors and institutions to be shown how to use it appropriately in educational and work settings. We put in place an online Digital induction for all new students 4 years ago, covering all the college IT systems, and ‘obvious’ things like backing up your work; we wanted to make our systems and processes explicit to new students. We learned not to assume that young students knew more than we did about technology and how it would be used in the college. What are the important digital employability skills was the next question and the result was the webinar project.
  6. Just for your information, here is a list of the employers who participated in a webinar with the students:Abingdon and Witney College (HR)Active Nation (Leisure)Morgan Cole (Solicitors)National Union of StudentsPuma Hotels (Spa Manager)STFC (Science)Waitrose (Retail)Wenn Townsend (Accountancy)
  7. This was a small, short project but we learned that having the webinar skills:Made a difference to the student and employer participantsWas a skill that was desirable and would make a job application stand outThat a structured course would help deliver the skillsTeachers need training in webinar skills to deliver it and to design good online materials.Most of the skills needed are generic (not linked to a single platform) and the soft skills (i.e. communication and working together) were just as important as the ‘technical skills’
  8. What did the students think?(next slide)
  9. MampsMakuku was a student on the project. He is going to join us via Skype and will briefly tell you:Who he isWhat he is studying?Why did he joined the project?What did he get out of it?Do you think that students like yourself should be taught how to run a webinar as part of your course?Any other points from a student’s view?
  10. What are we doing now?(Next slide)
  11. Embedding what we learnedHighlight the key employability skills identified in webinars by the employers who took part in our first project & create easy to use video clips. Produce a well structured and resourced blended learning course to teach students the skills of setting up and running a webinar as a 21st century digital employability skill. On MoodleFree to downloadCertificatedAssessedValidated – hopefullyPilots in September 2014Course on Moodle 2.4 or above, downloadable and available to be used locally.Blended course suitable for L3 – 16-19 or adults with F2F delivery plus online independent learning elementAssessed, certificated possibly validated for fundingQuestion:How many of you can make use of a Moodle course?Link to blog post with survey to find out, ‘How many of you have access to Moodle?’
