Plain-English tutorials

A recent thread on ITForum linked to some really clear tutorials on wikis and social bookmarking. See:


http://www.commoncraft.com/show


I liked in particular the Wikis and Social Bookmarking videos. Your work teams may want to set up a Wiki for your Induction project - I know one group has already done that. Social bookmarking with Del.icio.us is a tool we will begin using soon in class.


The commoncraft site is an excellent example of good instructional video - short, direct, well scripted to communicate clearly.
