What is
the Editorial Task Force?
The Editorial
Task Force was set up by NA3 to facilitate the re-use of
training material.
The quantity of material in the EGEE
Digital Library is immense. The ETF flags as
"exemplars" courses, modules, presentations and practicals
that are suitable for re-use, considered to be correct and are
up-to-date. These exemplars are made known via the
Digital Library and also via the ETF wiki http://wiki.nesc.ac.uk/read/egee-na3-etf.
Exemplars
now exist for the main types of training courses:
- Induction
- Application Developer
- There is a wide spectrum of possibilities here - the current
exemplars are a beginning.
- You are invited to contribute ideas (and ideally material)
to help to develop these courses.
- Installation
- System administrator
- Training the Trainer
See the ETF wiki
for more details.
Concerning the selection of this "exemplar
material" and the provision of new material:
- These are tasks that everyone familar with training material
is asked to help with.
- The ETF seeks to catalyse this effort.
- The ETF is not
intended to review or to provide all training material!!
- So if you have material that is better than an exemplar, or is
an alternative to it - you
are asked to draw the attention of the ETF to this
material. The mechanisms are
- Via use of the Digital Library, details
here
- Via use of the ETF wiki
- By email to project-eu-egee2-etf@cern.ch
Please note that:
- The exemplar courses present an acceptable way to deliver
standard EGEE courses. However:
- The goal of the ETF is not to diminish creativity!!
- Different events will be responding to different
circumstances, of available time, of participants'
experience.....
- Some trainers may wish to take different approaches.
Their choices should be informed but not constrained by
exemplars.
- The ETF is NOT assessing every presentation in the digital
library. It is relying on users and creators of material to
draw attention to the material that they consider appropriate to
comprise or else be included in exemplars.
- The ETF is NOT seeking to identify one presentation, or one
course of each type to be an exemplar. There will be
multiple exemplars of each type as time goes by and the ETF
receives comments.
- The scope of all ETF exemplar material is EGEE-wide, so
material specific to a country or federation will not be flagged
as exemplars
.
After any
course:
Please give comments to the ETF where improvements
to material have been made, or could be made - via the ETF wiki, the
Digital Library, or email to project-eu-egee2-etf@cern.ch
