Gliffy Static and Grazr Crazy:)~
Well now following along with my trial student, ironing out problems in my Moodle course. Of which there are many. The student has a dial up connection and so the ‘screencasts’ are very difficult for him to access, so I am going to place them as a zipped resource hopefully which will allow him to download them over a period of time.
Apart from that I am finally about to start my Outline draft for the assignment, and hopefully will be able to get that done soon.
At the moment have made the joyful discovery that Gliffy Beta is finally up and running, and I have had my first play. Its a great flowchart drawing Web 2.0 application with great collaboration features and ability to embed into any site or of course Moodle. It will be of great use in the future especially for those students on the AS who don’t have access to the likes of Smartdraw. It will definitely form part of the second projects tasks.
And also apart from the fact that it does not work in Moodle – aarrgghhh (need to find out why) – Grazr takes a OPML for RSS feed and places it in a mini browser window that is interactive, not only displaying the links but also able to link to more information. Check it out where that horrible TAGBOARD used to be!
