Tool Box

 The JISC TechDis Toolbox is a collection of resources which give useful hints and tips on technologies that can help individuals work smarter. Having used this a couple of times I would like stress how good this is and could be really useful for the learners and staff who may wish to brush up their  technology skills. It has been developed to help learners with learning difficulties the tool box is divided into five areas these include:
 Using Technology

Planning and Organisation

Communicating

Team Working

Different Needs

 Each section has short video clips, guides and audio files all of these are short bite sized to allow for quick and rapid learning. Having used the Planning and Organisation section for Managing your email I watched the video on  How to Set Up a Rule in Outlook email. I can say that this was quick and straight to the point and I was able to set up a rule in minutes

So this is a really useful toolbox full of tips hints and ways to make using technology easy. With plenty of different learning styles to choose from including video and written word it’s well worth a look at.
