Powerleague "allows people to cast votes, individually, in which they choose between two competing people, ideas or things. In a discussion on climate change, for example, they could vote for which they thought was the bigger cause of global warming: aeroplane emissions or volcanic activity — discuss! Each person chooses repeatedly from random pairs. By repeatedly casting votes, participants create a league, ranked in order of the most powerful, important, popular or influential. The results are often unexpected — participants are surprised to see how their peers voted — and a good starting point for discussion." I'm interested to see if it can help course teams make decisions about course production, or at least challenge some of our ideas and start a debate. It might also be a good way for ALs and students to be able to have a say about new courses/remakes at the design stage.

If you sign up to Powerleague and would like to see a league "I created earlier", you can go to: http://www.powerleague.org.uk/league/240
It's just an initial idea, and if you don't know much about our language courses it might be a bit difficult to vote, but it'll give you an idea. If it looks promising we will run it again, this time with the relevant stakeholders.
