Seale Chapter 12 - Issues

Identify three issues that are of most relevance or of most interest to you. Write two or three paragraphs about each of these three issues, either as private notes or in your blog.

Can novices in an accessible elearning activity system eventually become experts?
Although it is probably possible for a novice to learn enough through the accessible elearning activity system to eventually become an expert in theory. In practice however, it is unlikely that any subject who is not already a specialist in accessible elearning but is inviolved in the production of elearning materials to be able to devote a significant proportion of time to becoming an expert. Division of labour is likely to be an important factor in the resolution of this issue, and the division of labout needs to be influenced and made clear by an improvement of the rules (internal formal policy).

Are there contraditions between central components of an accessible e-learning system and can the identification of these contradictions help to develop and progress future practice?
Identification and isolation of the contradictions may help to provide clues as to the core problems that cause conflict between different components. Identification of seperate issues may helpmake the task of conflict resolution more manageable.

Is there a conflict between the object and division of labour that is is pulling different stakeholders apart and preventing them from working together to meet the objective?

From what I can tell, and this is true in my context, insufficient communication between stakeholders seems to cause much of the conflict. In order to work together to meet the objetive stakeholders must work together to develop a learning community based on sharing of knowledge and experience ... but how can we do this?
