The program, called Passport to Flexible Learning, was organized in the form of workshops that run concurrently over a 5-day period during the university's orientation week. During the workshops, participants acquired hands-on experience with a range of interactive teaching technologies. During the workshops, students were required to complete the following activities: participate in large-screen and small-screen videoconferences, a teleconference, and an audiographic session; summarize the main points from a tutored video instruction lecture; communicate via e-mail; download data from the Internet; and search and locate information from on-line library catalogues. A total of 400 internal and external students and 20 academic and general staff from a number of faculties and divisions participated in the program. Upon successful completion of the program, students received a passport documenting their participation in a range of activities representative of the world of electronic classrooms. Students who completed the program credited the workshops with increasing their knowledge and basic understanding of communication technologies and greatly increasing their confidence in interfacing with various media and participating in learning involving interactive technology.
