Abstract

Delivering a 'hands on' ICT practical lesson online offers vocationally based courses an increased presence in a learning sphere otherwise dominated by remote learning, exercise and material based courses. This paper explores work within the UK Open University to deliver collaborative learning with Cisco Systems, the technological pitfalls and how these are being overcome by the use of SkypeTM, Messenger and Netlab+TM.
