More articles on Conductive Education which are still free

I have just spent a couple of hours adding some new items to the virtual catalogue that are still available free on the Internet at

http://www.tes.co.uk/searchResults.aspx?area=thePaper&keywords=%22conductive+education%22

If you have a look you will see that this search produces  40 items but some of them are just announcements of courses, conferences or little pieces about events. Others are much meatier and these have been added to the virtual catalogue  at http://www.e-conduction.org/?page_id=115 

The contents of this cataloge are growing steadily and now there are almost three hundred items, with still more to be added.

Over 200 now!

I have spent quite a bit of time entering more material into the virtual catalogue now at home on the Conduction website at
http://www.e-conduction.org/?page_id=115  

To me this is quite an achievement as so many searches and checks have to be made before an item is entered, that it takes nearly an hour to do half a dozen or so. I keep finding new ones so there will be no end to this process, I am sure.  

My priority has been to get things up for all to find and see; this is a big clerical task. I realise that it may not be easy to navigate round the catalogue and I will  soon be able to revise the Help sheet to make it better, make searching and using the catalogue quicker and easier.  Please do let me know if you are experiencing problems so I can incorporate the solution into the Help sheet.  So far I have had only one piece of feedback and more would be very welcome - good or critical!

Virtual catalogue is slowly growing

This is just a little update on where I am with moving entries of material from the blog  Virtual catalogue I set up, to the searchable catalogue on Conduction's website at

http://www.e-conduction.org/?page_id=115

 

Recently there were some technical problems which meant that some entries had mysteriously been deleted. It has been sorted out now by my wonderful technical guy, Ben Foulger, so I can carry on adding items. This will take a little longer to do for a while as first  I have to check each one on my list to see if it is still there or needs re-adding. Very irritating, but I am getting through this stage gradually. I have spent some time today on adding more material to the  catalogue on the Conduction website and now there are 150 items.

Lots more to come!

Virtual catalogue is making progress

The new arrangements for the virtual catalogue are making good progress and I hope to be able to announce the launch of the new format soon.

 In the meantime the catalogue is still available at http://www.virtualcelibrary.blogspot.com/

Virtual catalogue is making progress

The new format of the virtual catalogue is making progress thanks to Ben Foulger. He has posted technical details of the systems he is using on his blog

All of that is a complete mystery to me as I am not computer savvy enough to understand any of it, but it sounds very impressive and seems to be doing the job required of it very well from the drafts I have seen so far.

As soon as its up and running and available via  Conduction's website I will let you know. This may take a while as there is still quite a bit to do and after all the technical stuff is in place, I will need to enter all the items found to date.

In the meantime the blog version will remain in place for anyone to access at
