-  Day 1 pm - frustratingly slow accessing site.
-  I didn't win the computer.
-  NETg.
-  The session containing the role-played "in that meeting" had 
   its uses, but was not really relevant to the manner in which 
   we would carry out there in that meetings.  This would not 
   allow individual with meetings and follow up.

-  The initial meeting - too open ended & too much like SRD. 
-  Talk about the different qualifications as it was already 
   available on paper.  
-  Information about the Master Degree.
-  Online session - obvious reason!
-  Talk "at" session on 1st morning Practical is always better.

-  Tuesday morning - too much talk, hard to see the point of 
   much of it.
-  Online speed accessing ttalit.ao.uk

-  Long morning session going through whole package.
-  Understand its necessary but session was too long.
-  Should have checked we could all log in etc when using the

   outlined here sufficiently- need to know why we're doing it 
   before how programme will help achieve this.

-  None.

-  The beer advert.
-  Hands on the software.

-  1st day last session.

-  Last session before question & answer - day 1.
-  The session where we were informed of how we can work towards 
   accreditation for MA at university of Southampton.  Really 
   felt it was irrelevant for me - could this have been 
   presented another way i.e. for those who were interested, to 
   speak to Eliz?

-  "playing" with course on-line.

-  Review the progress.

-  Clarify - forward please.
-  Depends how different schools go immediately forward.  
   Perhaps better discussed at PICTT & SICTT.
-  A clearer picture should by then of emerged eg. base of 
   teacher/pupil skills, ICT in the curri.  ESF view, 
   assessment etc. these need to be included.

   training programmes.

   considering ICT potential.
-  Time for colleagues to plan further, share ideas with other 
   colleagues from other schools.

  
-  Great chance for networking, & for the school team to 
   brainstorm & action-plan.
-  Support staff in the office will be interested in NETg too!!
-  As you named - a little mind boggling.  Liz & Eliz did well &
   were realistic - good luck to them trying to 'convert' HK.
-  The whole programme for a primary mainscale is daunting.  We 
   have to make it teacher friendly.  The cost is also daunting 
   for a school to fund.
-  However, a good kick start & motivator for our ICT initiative
   in schools.  We will start in Sept.
-  Generally very informative.  Quite a lot of demonstration 
   more than I would ideally like, but it was very well done, at
   least.  The information regarding ESF not hiding other staff 
   members this year had a big impact on our original planning 
   and should have been given earlier.

-  I think the course was back to front.  The ICT needs 
   identification sheet should have been given out on the first 
   day.
-  The course was confusing and not focussed.  The ICCT stuff 
   should have come first then the information about classroom 
   work.  More precise and clear information would have helped.
-  Lot of direct questions not answered.
-  Didn't think that the course covered a logical progression.  
   i.e. 2nd days 2nd session should have come 1st.
-  The ICAA women were informed and interesting should have had 
   more of them.
-  A less woolly day - i.e. no need for 30 mins coffee 1 hour 15 
   minutes lunch.
-  Less waffle from presenters and more explanations 
   esp. from Chris Smith.
-  In future planning - attempt to shorten the coffee & lunch 
   breaks.

-  Interesting & well presented - just a lot of information!
-  More group discussion.
-  I still don't know how to get the certificate is there one?  
   What do I talk to colleagues about!  It is all rather 
   confusing - too many schemes - I like to have more structure.    
   I think we should have to produce evidence and send it away.     
   I am worried that many teachers won't do this!
-  Has given me a lot to think about.  I feel very ready & 
   motivated to go and try and learn & then while learning apply
   to my class.
-  However, right after the "initial meeting" observation felt 
   overwhelmed.  How could I support someone else right away 
   before I even get started and try it out.
-  Can you make it less confusing?
-  Acoustics; often difficult to hear.

-  Lack of real clarity about ESF's involvement with the 
   initiative.
-  I found it stimulating and worrying(!) - so much to learn!  I
   enjoyed the 'funniest' - very important when you're sitting 
   down for so long.
-  Breaks were larger than needed (coffee breaks & lunch).
-  Provide us with disks well in advance - do we need to work 
   through them during an INSET day or could this time have been
   spent more productively.
-  I understand about putting answers online.  But very often I 
   want answer there and then.
-  Too much sitting and listening.
-  Practical sessions group discussions much better for bouncing
   ideas off others - furthering understanding.
-  Terminology + level of IT skills needed may be offputting .. 
   pre training/familiarisation?

-  I think day 1 and day 2 should have been reversed.
-  The sessions using the materials CD-ROMs & internet; required
   more guidance and assistance.
-  The ICTT materials will need to be modified for use on Hong 
   Kong.
-  Lunch break on the first day was far too long.  Would have 
   preferred 30 - 40 minutes and to finish earlier.
-  When questions were added from the 'floor' it was not always 
   possible to hear what was being said - on the second day 
   however, the person with the mic did repeat the question.
-  Clearer aims/targets for 2 days.
-  Introduction of programme should be simplified to enable 
   people to 'come to grips' with the whole/overall aim.  Having
   a 10 minute overview at the start would have eliminated the 
   confusion overwhelming feeling sensed at the start of the 
   course ( & did not subside until the middle session on the 
   2nd day) the materials look fantastic & deserve to be 
   presented in a more powerful, punchy way!!!
