Hello ATW
Thanks so much for your help... One can read from books and journals but it is so much better to have an experiance told to you from real life. It is veru kind of you.
The College leadership, although enthusiastic, as yet are not pushing the teaching staff to use it so i have a bit of a selling job to do.... in fairness to them we are going through quite a lot of accreditation gathering (we have to make money for heavens sake ) so their minds arent on the VLE. However we are using Moodle for a Zoo keeper course where the students are all over the UK.
Sparsholt College is a Land based college based near Winchester UK, catering for 14 to 99 year olds.
