Settle+In+Project+Overview

"Settle In!" is an 2010 E-learning Innovations Project funded by Skills Tasmania through the Australian Flexible Learning Framework . Migrant Education teachers and students will create localized settlement information resources in different formats and community languages that recently-arrived migrants and refugees will be able to access at any time to help with their settlement in Tasmania. These resources will be created by students as part of their Certificate in Spoken and Written English (CSWE) courses. Students will arrange, carry out and record interviews with relevant service providers. These interviews will be transcribed and translated into various community languages. Students will also create podwalks* of places of interest in the local area. Both these resources will be posted on this wiki (meintassie.wikispaces.com) that was created as a 2009 Learning Innovation and will be used and updated by a variety of service providers around the state beyond the life of the project.

 * What is a "podwalk"? It is an audio guide with photos that you can download from the website and listen to on your own personal i-Pod, MP3 Player or Mobile Phone as you visit the place of interest.
