In 1994 she founded PermacultureVisions.com - an on-line teaching project serving over 30 countries in a time when the Internet was very new. The project was considered impractical and ill-founded but quickly proved its usefulness by meeting people in remote areas.\n\nAnother key influence in 1996 was the presentation of the concept of Student Focused learning which helped define the organic processes used in permaculturevisions.com teaching methodology. She met Esther Deans in 1998. Esther came to her site and inspired her in her permaculture work. She met [[Bill Mollison]] at the International Conference in 1986. Other key people in her work are Janet Millington, Robyn Clayfield and Mary Darcy. She has designed for a commercial projects in [[Malaysia]], a large (6000 acre) mixed farm in Tamworth and several home sites in [[New South Wales|NSW]].\n\n== External links ==\n\n* [http://www.permaculturevisions.com PermacultureVisions.com] - Her main teaching project since 1993 (dead link as of late 2015)\n* [http://permacultureglobal.org/users/218-april-sampson-kelly Profile at PermacultureGlobal.net]\n\n{{Page data\n| license = CC-BY-SA-3.0\n| ported-from = http://permaculture.wikia.com/wiki/A_Sampson-kelly\n| keywords = permaculture\n}}\n\n[[Category:Permaculture]]"}
