notes from the Moodle Moot 08 e-Learning Conference…

The session follwing the informative Moodle Gradebook presentation, was from Bronwyn Campbell of Active Learning Partners.

Her session was called ‘Diving into e-Learning’, it was a case study about building capability and enthusiasm for using a ‘low-budget’ online learning environment, Moodle.

The course - http://elearning.adas-online.org is for the Occupational Diving Industry, the clients are mostly mature-age, time-poor and experienced in the field.

Getting divers out of the water and into a classroom proved to be a bit of a logistical nightmare and Bronwyn’s presentation explored some of the benefits, challenges and issues involved in moving the classroom online, into Moodle.

The attached PowerPoint presentation from her session is jam-packed with statistics and data gathered from students of the online course. Grab a cuppa and five minutes to take a look at their journey and statistics!

Next Moodle Moot blog post will be about Podcasting through Moodle, a session presented by Julian Ridden a.k.a Moodleman.
