 =Travel Online - Home = Hello reader and thank you for joining me in my quest to share with you my passion for travel and its industry.

This site has been primarily constructed as a learning tool. A learning tool for me, initially. As part of my Graduate Diploma in Vocational Education and Training, I have undertaken the learning unit - Teaching and Learning in a Virtual Environment. I will be utilising this Wiki space as an opportunity to present my ideas.

This site will be segmented into 3 major sections: Section 1 //** Part A of my major assessment is to design the curriculum materials for my proposed course, Travel Online.

This programme will be delivered via the TAFE flexible delivery hub known as TAFE VC, or simliar. As external access to this is proving to be limited for my assessors, plus I have recently learned that they may be changing the online delivery technology; I have decided to construct my online learning system via this Wiki with references to TAFE VC.

Go to: SECTION 1

**//Section 2//** I will utilise this section as a vehicle to deliver my "Travel Journal" ideas.

This space is divided into geographaphical sections that I will contribute to and so will the students as part of their assessment tasks. Its development, at this stage, is still in its infancy but the basic outline will remain the same. Should this course be utilised in the future as a learning opportunity, I would simply delete my own curriculum development notes, (Section 1 and 3), and retain this section for mine and the students use. The learning material in sections 1 and 2, once developed will be placed on an online system like TAFE VC.

Go to: SECTION 1

**//Section 3//** This will be the final submission of my major assessment - Part B, final curriculum materials. Here I will fully develop a teacher's guide, provide a unit outline for the students to follow and at least 8-hours of activities for the students to participate in.

So - you have sbeen invited to read my work in progress! Incidentally, the photo below is me a couple of years ago heading to the Great Wall of China by chair lift. In time to come, I will enjoy reading my own students' notes and experiences on this destination - all within the Travel Online Wiki site!!!
