Timesaving ways to Introduce SAM Learning to Colleagues
- Invite ICT representatives from core subjects to a computer suite
during departmental meeting time. Before your colleagues arrive, go to
login to SAM Learning on a few of the computers. Show our PowerPoint
Presentation, then ask them to navigate around the service making sure
to cover the four aspects of the service (above) and provide written
comments.
- As part of a Heads of Department meeting ask staff to login to SAM
Learning before or after the meeting and navigate around covering the
four aspects of the service (above). Collect written feedback.
- Set http://www.samlearning.com
as the default page in the browser on the staff room computer. Notify
staff at a weekly staff briefing that SAM Learning is available. Put up
our poster in the staff room (it has login instructions). Leave an
Evaluation Form next to the computer (with attached pen) for their
feedback.
- We find asking staff to look at SAM Learning at their leisure and/or
putting notes in people's pigeonholes are NOT effective.
Introducing SAM Learning to Learners
- At the outset it's worth introducing SAM Learning to small groups of
Learners, perhaps at lunch/break time or after school. Perhaps use SAM
Learning as a whole-class activity once a small group have used it. This
ensures are no technical problems and you know the login procedure for
Learners.
- After Learners have used SAM Learning suggest to those with home
Internet access to try SAM Learning in their own time.
