Hello! My name is Vivian Evans

Thankyou so much to the Bega Valley Community for allowing me to be a guest editor! I am tickled pink by the Community resource you have here!

 I am exploring your site, how it works and what potential it could be for such a resource in my local community. At the same time I hope I can be of value to some of you as I contribute to your online community.

I live in a solar powered log cabin 25km out of Coonabarabran NSW with my husband Brian and two 2 daughters, Gemma & Jasmine.

I am a Consultant specialising in Synchronous learning and  facilitating online Communities of Practice. You can see my upcoming online synchronous events and workshops via my 2006 Professional Calendar and summary of Projects for 2006

You can see brief outlines of the Professional Development projects I have been involved in during 2005 via my page on Professional Development projects

I am also an Adult Literacy teacher working face to face with students at the Coonabarabran campus of New England Institute of TAFE. 

There is so much to learn as technology evolves and improves. Most recently I have been exploring Virtual Conference rooms such as DiscoverE & Elluminate and learning how to better facilitate/teach via these online 'rooms'.

I have a passion for exploring useful easy to use freeware that teachers & students alike can explore, use and to create their own content for the WWW. I am planning to gradually add some of my favourites with brief descriptions so you can consider whether you could find any use for them.

Presently I am having fun with a digital camera and exploring all it's features too... I have uploaded some of my favourites below and to my Photo Gallery

At present I am just beginning to explore how to construct these webpages so it is definitely 'a work in progress'!  I love the fact that you can share digital stories and add all sorts of features... I am having fun testing the boundaries!

Feel free to make comments via the feedback form below.

THANKYOU for allowing me to contribute

Cheers
