"Learning Time," a Web-based workshop on time management being piloted by the Learning Commons in the U of G Library, received an honourable mention in the single-course category at the annual international conference of North American Web (NAWeb), a network of Web courseware developers originating at the University of New Brunswick.
Located at www.webshops.uoguelph.ca/learningtime, "Learning Time" was designed and developed by Maryann Kope, co-ordinator of Learning Services, with the assistance of former student Venk Chandran and support from a student life enhancement grant. Sites nominated for the NAWeb award were evaluated on their navigation, content, design, style, innovation, interaction, efficiency and flexibility.
This is the second Learning Commons Web resource to earn recognition recently. One of the Fastfax series, "Making a Task List," was selected as a Links2Go "key resource" in time management. Links2Go selects Web pages as a key resource using an objective statistical measure applied to an extremely large data set. Fewer than one page in a thousand is selected, and "Making a Task List" ranked in the top 10 of time management resources. The Fastfax series can be accessed at www.uoguelph.ca/csrc/learning/fastfax3.htm.
