What the college has at the moment:

What our college has at current:

The College Website and Intranet, Also Known As Moodle…..

The website allows to search the Library books and Source material that at currently available to borrow from the library.

Moodle, Intranet

The moodle intranet also allows students to download their timetables, and lecture notes and Briefs. Messages can be sent through the site allowing for communication.

The Student finder on Moodle allows for students and staff to be searched by course, level or by name, which will then give contact details of email addresses so students and staff can get in touch with each other.

Ravensbourne College has its own Webmail services, giving every student their own email address so important lecturers can hand out information easily.

There are forums where students can get involved and start conversations about issues they are having in the college, events that are going on and uploading work to forums to discuss.

There are also community forums, which are currently being used to place advertising for equipment people are trying to sell, and people just starting conversations casually.

Work placements opportunities have their own section and are updated by the employability team every day. So long as you are signed up to the webpage, everything can be emailed directly to you. This helps the students to know exactly what job opportunities and placements there are outside of the college.

We believe it could be helpful for a similar service, which would show what work is needed to be done within college too.

Careers and guidance on CVs, Freelancing and setting up your own business are all available for students to look at.

There is an Events page for outside the university and events within the college, but are they always updated? There isn’t anything else on the page at this time.

There are a few weaknesses within our idea for this portfolio website. One is of the costing for the project. There are already portfolios out there, which are available for free.

We have thought of a few ways to change the project slightly in order to make it work.

The Jobs pages are updated regularly, know one really looks much into them. It was then made easier that all jobs will be emailed to students if they sign up for them all to be emailed to them. is there a way of attracting the students for them to look at them.
