Language tutoring support in the LRC
2011/12/20
Leave a comment
- New and improved as of Spring 2012: We now have 2 computerized small group work spaces for tutoring groups.
- An effective computerized help desk
- A live CAE tutor calendar display. This will help the time zone-challenged students until all students are put into the right time zone in NINERMAIL (or self-help). At that point all students will be able to load the tutor calendar of their choice in NINERMAIL. The tutor calendar has also “LRC” in the title – this way students always are reminded WHERE the tutoring is. We are also working on getting small group workspaces set up in the entrance library area to the left.
- Improved tutor signage
- A variety of non-computerized tutoring workspaces
- A variety of computerized tutoring workspaces that allow the tutoring to share with other uses of the LRC.
- As listed in this view when you enter the LRC:

To reuse your own content, you can import. To use somebody else’s content, the other user can backup his content (even though not shown below, a subset of the content of a course can be chosen) and share (by downloading the file created within the course file area) the backup file with you (a zip-archive that contains an xml file), for the other user to restore. Like so:
