Peter Travis: Flo-Joe
Following a career in EFL Peter became ILT Manager at Henley College Coventry, a Further Education College in the West Midlands. He was responsible for the strategic development of ICT across the college and for staff training in the use of new technology. In 2005 Peter was shortlisted for the QIA Star Award for the 'E-Learning Tutor of the Year' sponsored by Microsoft. Peter left FE in 2006 to further develop Flo-Joe, the website for students preparing for Cambridge ESOL exams: http://www.flo-joe.co.uk. Peter set up Splendid Speaking: http://www.splendid-speaking.com in October 2006, a website aimed at supporting upper-intermediate and advanced learners of English develop their speaking skills. Splendid Speaking contains recordings/podcasts of students carrying out exam-style speaking tasks which were undertaken using Skype. The recordings and case studies outlining how this was done are available from the Splendid Speaking website. Peter has spoken at various regional and national EFL and ICT events across the country and run workshops on the use of new technology.
