Continued Engagement (Beyond the Life of the Project) Cillian Ryan and Rebecca Taylor

What we learnt from WinEcon Dissemination project Aim was to facilitate dissemination of existing prize-winning software by creating team of implementers. Implicit test of hypothesis of main barrier to dissemination. Evidence mixed. Tried to carry over lessons to other Economics projects

What we learnt from WinEcon Dissemination project PROS: Student focussed Bite sized, reusable objects Core material Mostly time-invariant

What we learnt from WinEcon Dissemination project CONS: Based around toolkit Not Microsoft compatible Originally web links version dependent Originally largely mainframe dependent

What we learnt from WinEcon Dissemination project Questionnaires and use evidence indicates that students more likely to use if product is web- linked

What we learnt from WinEcon Dissemination project Implementation needed to be durable. –Links Not version dependent Easy access essential (easily downloadable by students). Microsoft compatibility desirable

What we learnt from WinEcon Dissemination project Product needed to be portable between successor lecturers Where will existed use of implementation team was a success Presence of technical barriers often meant that work of implementation team was wasted No substitute for desire
