Small-group instruction
"As
much as I appreciate the value of learning from others, I would have been
less frustrated at times if there had been provision for instructing the
more experienced users separately from the less experienced (maybe have a
morning session in common but separate in the afternoon). Some of the
information was conveyed very quickly because it was 'old hat' to some of
the participants."
"Some
time working in smaller groups, of different sorts: teaching levels;
technological experience; interests in projects (certainly not for
the whole time, but on a short-meeting basis)."
"For
me, do HTML through Composer (as we did) and then a bit more concentrated
time on the HTML itself. (We actually came very close to this, but somehow
I lost connection between beginning and middle of HTML and so could not
concentrate on the supplementary work--painting, tables, etc.) To
accomplish this is might be necessary to occasionally divide into
sub-groups, according to skills level."
"Try
to find some way to meet participants where they are technologically
(e.g., Tuesday afternoon pre-workshop session on basic computer
language and maneuvering."
