Mentoring student group work online
by Tom Worthington, Computer Consultant & Honorary Lecturer ANU
For the Microlearning Series, Maskwacis Cultural College, Canada
4pm Tuesday MDT (North America), 8am Wednesday 26 August AEST (Canberra)

The best way for students to learn practical skills for a vocation is by 
practice. This can be in a real workplace as an intern, or in a team of 
students working on a real-world project. But many "real" workplaces are 
now virtual, with staff working online remotely. This requires new
skills of those providing Work Integrated Learning.

Questions for participants:

1. How do you provide individual students, or teams, just enough advice, 
when you can't physically meet with them?
2. How can online mentoring techniques be used after face to face 
teaching and working resumes?
