Discovering how to Tweet!

As part of this project we are becoming involved in the world of Twitter. So what is Twitter? Prior to this point all we knew about Twitter was that it was a medium used by celebrities to highlight their activities. But we are now discovering that this is a powerful tool in terms of marketing. Already we are getting followers from around the world who are watching our progress. In order to capitalise on this, we are looking to attend some addition personal development in this area so that we can fully utilise our ability to Tweet! In the meantime, feel free to click on the Twitter link and join us on this journey.

Welcome to the e Glasshouse Blog

In 2010 Chisholm Institute was successful in securing funding to develop a E learning system to compliment the Controlled Environment Horticulture Glasshouse.

The project is being funded by the Australian Flexible Learning Framework and conducted under the guidance of  eWorks, who are a leading exponent of e-learning solutions and technology training. eWorks are continually reviewing products and services to develop solutions that match the pace of change in industry and technology.

The project will see the introduction of "webcams" in to the glasshouse to facilitate on line vision of the crops, and a direct link to the Priva Integro climate management system.

We have developed a further blog site that will track the progress of this project, which will ultimately allow individuals to see exactly what is happening within the glasshouse. The link to this site is located on this blog site and will be updated as the project progresses.

This project is an exciting development in both the educational and technology areas, and will enhance Chisholm's capacity to deliver courses to a wider student cohort.
