Wrestling with Moodle 1.6, and other joys…

Well still waiting upon my results for my second module, while everyone else seems to have got them. Awwww…. Have to now start thinking about what to do for my ‘Critical Study’, and yes I should be relaxing on holiday, but its been going through my mind. Some ideas I will have to cogitate are:-

  • Web 2.0 – Read/Write Web and its effects on education – linking to ideas if connected learning, saftey issues and whether they would be valuable learning tools in the future that are linked with some clever piece of software
  • Eportfolio use in a secondary school – Will it work, maybe setup Elgg and link to Moodle and then test out over period of time
  • Is an LMS practical with teachers who are technocentric? – International schools and poor ICT provision is an LMS a worthy addition that all subjects could use?

Well theres a few? Will have to think about those a little more. Although the idea of Elgg setup scares me as my Moodle site has just gone down although I’m looking to make the event a positive and upgrade to Moodle 1.6 in the mean times. Have begun on my eportfolio address using Joomla as a basic template which should lead to an easy repository of ideas and information. I wonder whether I can link it to my WordPress blog somehow?
