Welcome to all of our new 2007 students in the Graduate Diploma of Education (Applied Learning) and congratulations on being accepted into the course.
My name is Damian Blake and I am one of the Grad Dip Ed (AL) team who will be working with you in 2007.
Although we will be using the Deakin Studies Online (DSO) throughout 2007, I have also set-up this blog site to allow our students to introduce themselves and begin communicating with each other before next year.
Yes I know it is getting very late in the year, with Christmas just three weeks away now, however I thought it might be a good idea to provide an opportunity to get together for afternoon tea. A meet and greet if you like!
I have booked the Lakehouse Restaurant at Deakin Uni in Waurn Ponds for 3:00pm on Wednesday 13 December, 2006 for anyone who is interested and available to meet other students in the course and members of the course team.
We will have a light afternoon tea provided, and if you like, you can also purchase a drink from the bar.
The Deakin Lakehouse at our Waurn Ponds Campus can be located using the maplink: Deakin Map
If you are interested in coming, could you please respond by creating a comment (click on the comments link below) on this blog site...oh, and you can introduce yourself to other students at the same time. Alternatively, you could also send me an email direct: dmblake@deakin.edu.au
Even if you will be busy (Christmas shopping or at work) and can't make it, you can still introduce yourself by commenting to this blog. You may be surprised to find others living near you also doing the course - great for car pooling!
But please don't worry if you can't get there, it's only planned as a social opportunity to say hello and meet others in the course. There will be other opportunities next year and all official materials will be sent to you in the mail or handed out during the Summer School intensive in February.
Regards,
Damian
