I suggested that but she said she wanted the creative features and the ability to customize it beyond what elearn offers. She has also outlined that the students do not use any personal or school email addresses to access the site and as the unit is based on creating avatars no personal information of the students is placed on the site.

From: Tony McCormack <[email protected]> Reply-To: QSITE ICT Teachers <[email protected]> Date: Fri, 08 Apr 2011 13:25:01 +1000 To: QSITE ICT Teachers <[email protected]> Subject: RE: [qsiteict] Drama request from teacher G'day Jeff A virtual classroom hosted on eLearn wouldn't do the job? The teacher would be able to setup a wiki that would allow students to create profiles (a new wiki page for each profile) and upload their files to that page. It would still allow others to comment on the wiki page (like writing on a facebook wall), but would all be protected within EQ space. You could further enhance it with blogs and other activities within the unit, all in a one stop shop. It might not be quite as 'elegant' as a proper profile on a social networking site, but it is a lot safer and easier to administer within our own system. Happy to provide any further elaboration if needed; hope it helps! :) Cheers Tony Tony McCormack | HOD - Technology | Charleville State High School | DDSW-West | Cnr Partridge & Hunter Sts | CHARLEVILLE Qld 4470 | T 07 4656 8888 | M 0428 888 514 | E [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> | Twitter tony_mack <http://twitter.com/tony_mack> | W http://tinyurl.com/EQLPtmcco60 This email (including any attached files) is intended only for the addressee and may contain confidential information.

From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jeff Smithard Sent: Friday, 8 April 2011 12:47 PM To: QSITE ICT Teachers Subject: [qsiteict] Drama request from teacher I have had a request from a Drama teacher at school who has asked the following "I do a 6- 8 week yr 11 drama unit called cyber- theatre. Students work in groups to create a character, they then create a profile for this character. I am hoping to get EQ permission to use Ning Space. The students have to create a number of video clips and upload these to their characters profile page. Including video intro of character, news report, symbolic response in either photo story / movie maker, and an improvised webcamed blogologue. In the past the students have really loved this unit. I am going to have to seek permission from EQ to allow students to access NING, ( I can set this up as a private space that only the yr 11 drama students can access). Do you have any idea how I would go about seeking this permission???" If anyone has any ideas of either how to go about this or an alternative could you let me know.
