LEARNERS / CLIENT / INDUSTRY ENGAGEMENT
Bjorn Ulfsson Teacher Tourism and Hospitlaity 
 * The THED project actively involves clients or learners as part of the work based learning process to incorporate e-learning into achieving learning outcomes.
 * The event management section is exploring participatory pedagogy and e-portfolios using mobile technology with students…
 * ‘Our Event management student’s will be moblogging this year as part of the life based learning trend, students taking an active role in reflecting on their learning as they go through the learning process capturing and sharing photos of preparing the event and building their eportfolio…’
 * All Clients/learners will benefit from the THED 07 project through developing their own personal digital media they can build an E-portfolio for RPL and employment…
 * In trialling of elearning strategies teachers will also be asked to record (video, audio, images and text) student feedback to ensure that projects meet the broad needs of clients to present as evidence of real outcomes at the end of the project.
 * In addition it is planned to compile a class of 2007 student DVD with media, photos, video and audio that reflects the students time at TAFE. Importantly the DVD will connect alumni’s to teachers and future students.
 * Importantly the Meat:ED will explore streamlining the assessment process for clients using technology (Mobile CLAMS, Wireless Connectivity, Web Conferencing) and in consultation with representatives from Industry bodies
