During the training sessions that have been taking place over the last 2 months we’ve been putting together a training manual. Our ideas, as well as the Connexions site, keep evolving so expect a steady set of revisions of the manual as time goes by. That said, if you’re interested in Siyavula and getting involved, or even just seeing what it is all about start off with the manual.
Part 1 – Introduction
Part 1 of the manual deals with the Siyavula project in general and explains how Siyavula, Connexions and all the other partners fit together. It also covers our suggestions for starting to form your own workgroups, for support and the sharing of resources.
The first part of the manual can be downloaded from the papers section or directly here.
Part 2 – Casual Browsing
The second part deals with what you can do on the Connexions site as a passive consumer of material, without needing to create an account, login or register in any way.
The second part of the manual can be downloaded directly here.
Part 3 – Registered User
The benefits of registering for an account and logging in are explained in Part 3 of the manual with step-by-step instructions on how to get going.
The third part of the manual can be downloaded directly here.
Part 4 – Workgroups
In the final part we link back to the idea of creating workgroups and how you can use the Connexions platform as a tool to support real-world or virtual workgroup activities.
