  1. Removing the blank looks – using eLearning to explain PSIAngele GIULIANOangele@acrosslimits.com

  2. The Background • PSI Directive is relatively new • Transposition in many member states is very recent (e.g. Malta in Feb 2007) • Governments have not taken the role of teaching about PSI • Both public civil servants and private companies/stakeholders are ignorant of obligations and opportunities • Blank looks or feigned knowledgeable look are common!

  3. Training Styles • Education styles • Face to Face (F2F) teaching (including workshops, conferences) • Traditional distance learning (books, paper materials) • Learning videos, CBT, Multimedia CDs • Internet based teaching & learning (synchronous & asynchronous) • PSI teaching could be a blended approach – either tutor lead or self-paced

  4. Why E-learning? The eLearning Blend

  5. Options to be explored • Recorded video lessons / interviews / workshops placed online (similar to Youtube) • Asynchronous teaching space with learning objects, modules, thematic courses (using Moodle or similar) • First person simulations to teach public servants the steps and decisions to take in different situations ( using decision based systems like Quandary from Half Baked Software http://www.halfbakedsoftware.com/quandary.php ) • Creating a Learning Video DVD that can be given to government information offices to put on in waiting rooms

  6. Costs, Time, Content • Strength = a lot of great material is already within the EPSIplus portal, the Forum, Case studies etc • Technology used can be open source or free for educational purposes • Time to plan and carry out learning solutions is NOT trivial however and would be difficult to go for without some funding • If we are targeting general public/larger stakeholders circle, all materials need to be translated. Again NOT trivial expense/time • If we choose tutor/mentor led approaches then their time has to be re-imbursed

  7. Ideas? Discussion? • Feel free to agree or disagree • Is this also a problem in your country? • Who would benefit most from PSI teaching? • Should there be courses for civil servants & courses for private stakeholders? • How could we reach our targets? • How do we fund the material creation?

  8. Thanks for your attention (Thanks Chris for your patience!!)
