Learning Resources Services (LRS) at Deakin University produce course materials in print, audio and video media. Staff have professional backgrounds in graphic design, editing, audio and video production, and printing. The University now uses online and multimedia learning environments and LRS staff required professional development to transfer their skills, knowledge and experience in the development, production and delivery of learning materials to this new environment. This paper focuses on the group of editors at LRS and their experiences of creating, developing and delivering their own professional development using reflective critical practice as the pedagogic rationale. The case study describes the design of the Editing Online Publications Workshop, a professional development program for editors, delivered through a website and an online conferencing facility. The authors examine the online learning resulting from the workshop from the perspective of both the participants and the developers of the program. Show less
