Get to Grips with GLOW Groups - Early Adopters Discussion

We have spent quite a bit of time today talking about SEEMIS and provisioning of accounts for GLOW at the early adopters meeting in Dunblane. One of the most interesting areas of discussion, however, related to setting up and using GLOW groups. We have set up a group for curriculum for excellence which is already starting to get us thinking about the development of our strategy in this area. The setting up of the group has helped us to start to think about structures and the technical issues in getting rolling. The first real example of the use of this is in the area of inter disciplinary working. The staff development officer is working with staff from a number of schools looking at how to develop examples of good practice. They are beginning to share ideas and examples using the group. This can then be spread out more boradly to other colleagues.

A good start, but we need to do lots of thinking about GLOW group structures and how we start to think about it.
