Toughest staff development session you'll ever run...

OK then, so that is 1 down, 2 to go....

Paul and I had about 60 people in our session this morning and on the whole they all seemed to enjoy the "show and share" approach we took, ie just a title powerpoint (in case anyone was in the wrong room and hoping for something on webct vista disaster recovery for very small institutions) and then a walk through the Bb site and the blog from the workshop. We finished with approx 5 minutes to spare...which was a good job really...as we then spent 15 minutes dealing out business cards. I got rid of 46 cards altogether (I usually expect to shift 10-15) loads of people asking if we would share structure, content, survey questions....sure, why not...what a lot of friends we made!! Bizarre what captures people's interest....

Not expect quite such a crowd for the portal session in the morning (after all 7.30am on the morning after the party doesn't feel like a prime slot)

Well survived! You do realise though that by flooding the market you'll have significantly reduced the value of your card to collectors - no, really, check out the collector cafe...beware anybody who asks for 2 cards.
