I have been away for a long time, but not idle. At school they have changed from Moodle 1.9 ( which caused me some frustrations) to Moodle 2.2.3 I have had to re-learn some of the things that I thought I knew... All in all, though, it has been a good experience. Since my last post I have done many things.
1. I have put together an Google sites page that features grammar with explanations and links to screencasts and videos and then I have reworked it to make it more visual and easier to use. This site plugs into Moodle and allows me to feature content that I will not have to redo every time I change classes.
2. I have made my Moodle front page and homework pages much more visual and standard so that the students won't get too confused from week to week.
3. I have discovered how to make a short answer self-correcting quiz in Moodle that I am very proud of. It took me a day and a half of talking to teachers, watching YouTube How To videos and the reading Moodle docs on moodle.org to figure it out.
I am anxious to include some visuals of what I have done as a record and for you to see the reslults of my work. I will do so in the next post.
I am also looking at some new programs that will allow me to screencast with no time limit and that will also allow me to use my web cam in this endeavour...
More later.
