Hello Moodlers,
I just want to announce, that starting at next school year, moodle will be the plattform for Bavarian laptop classes.
I'm very happy about it and hope that this will be the beginning of an increasing Community of Moodle schools in Bavaria and as many of the schools have connections to laptop classes in other parts of Germany and Austria, I hope that moodle will soon be used (or used more) there, too.
Greetings from Bavaria S. Fieler
Liebe Susanne F.,
I had a conversation today with a good friend working with the ICT and media solutions at a Danish teacher college, and we were talking about pro & con on implementing Moodle; your example would be a fine demonstration of how this could be done in secondary school.
I took the liberty of checking your profile, and found my way to your math course in the laptop class, grade 8. This looks very good, and so does the laptop class. I would be interested in hearing more about your now and future experiences. Please don't you forget to report basck from time to time, even with the less rosy part of the story, in case of eventual constraints with technologies, colleagues or students
I also revealed that we're sharing a most powerful first name
yours,

Hello Susanne N.,
thank you for your compliment.
As it is my task to train the schools and teachers of the laptop classes and sometime ago I was asked by a professor wether I would like to do a doctorate, I'm now thinking of evaluating this. Of course the results will then be available for all.

P.S.:
I forgot:
@Art: - we all can be proud of moodle (ok, all developers a big little bit more
), it was the winner under several plattforms, one of them was made by a very well known and big American group, who developes software and did a solution for schools fitting to their Server-OS. The other one was made by the biggest telekommunikation group here, who would love to set a feet in schools.
All other opensource elearning solutions could not compete with moodle.
thank you for your compliment.

Susanne,
Congratulations from your neighbors in Baden-Württemberg. We are next. Yesterday we were notified by our head office in Stuttgart that schools willing to experiment with an LMS should sign up immediately to take part in a statewide elearning project. The type of project is up to the individual schools - the only condition: the LMS must be MOODLE. Isn't that great 
. Art, when I visited you last August, I never thought that something like this would happen so soon.
Of course we will sign up - we are already beyond the experimentation stage (thanks to Mary and Art).
Greetings from Mannheim

Ulrike,
I am sitting here in an Internet cafe with my current group of new Moodlers and we are excited by your good news. I, of course, am hyperventilating.
In a few days, we will celebrate together in Mannheim or Heidelberg.
