Join the Learning Revolution at Newham College of Further Education

Last week (27/10-30/10) I joined a group of group of Cluj-based Romanian experts in adult education for a visit to London, part of a Leonardo project aiming to exchange good practices on adult e-learning in Europe. We attended a most interesting workshop on the role and benefits of implementing a VLE for the college courses aimed at a very numerous student population.

Newham College of Further Education is a college of further education in the London Borough of Newham, United Kingdom. Previously called Newham Community College, it was created from the merger of the former West Ham College and East Ham College. The main site is in East Ham, with a further site in Stratford, and six further local neighbourhood learning centres. An Oftsted report following a 2009 inspection awarded the school a Grade 1 (outstanding). The college is a member of the 157 Group of high performing school (Source: Wikipedia).

 Our hostess, Mrs. Joyce Amato, and her team introduced us to the college Moodle-based VLE, called New Learning, the result of two-year efforts to integrate technology in learning.
Definitely, where there is a will there's a way... and it's up to us to decide whether we want or not to join this Revolution!
