NIFL Workplace Subscribers:
The following message is a requested post by LINCS:


Several of us are working on a National Training Team Project for NIFL to
increase the use of LINCS.  Our charge is to develop a multi-media training
package that will include CD-ROM as well Internet-based components.  The
target audience for this phase of the training is the practitioner.

Section one of the training will be a general guided tour of LINCS and
section two will be guided explorations of LINCS resources.  To insure that
the scenarios in the guided explorations are relevant to practitioners, the
team would like your assistance in getting some topics/questions related to
instruction that a practitioner could come to LINCS to get resources for.
For example, an instructor might ask where in LINCS can I go to get
information on passing the new GED.  An ESL instructor might want to know
what LINCS resources there are for civics information.  A math instructor
might want to know where there are good supplemental materials for teaching
word problems.

In the next week of discussion, would you as list subscribers help the team
by posing some questions that real teachers would ask about identifying
resources for use with their students?  We on the team really want this
training to be reality based and know that those of you on lists can help us
make it that way.

Training team members will be monitoring the various lists from now until
April 17 and I'll be compiling a summary of submitted questions.

Thanks for helping us to develop a useful product and increase the use of
LINCS.

Training Team Chair
