Bonjour Daniel,

J'ai installé Moodle 1.9.10 de deux façons sur Windows 7:

  1. BitNami Moodle Stack - c'est extrèmement facile à installer mais j'avais trouvé qu'il tournait assez lentement.
  2. J'ai installé un serveur Zampp et ensuite j'ai installé dessus le Standard Moodle Package. Il fallait le faire en plus d'étapes qu'avec BitNami mais chaque étape était aussi très facile. Les mises à jour sont également faciles. Et sur le serveur Zampp je peux faire aussi faire tourner Joomla et autres choses.

Cheers,

Glenys

Hi Tim and Mary,

Very interesting and I totally endorse it. I hardly ever use the "Assignment" activity for assignments because it's private. So many of my students write such wonderfully interesting assignments that I feel it's a crime to be the only person to read them. Nearly all my assignments are submitted via forums, glossaries or wikis which all the students in the course can read. Nobody has ever complained - but my students are adults.

I'm astonished that the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) objects to the public posting of grades: as a student I would demand it. If I get a grade B it means something quite different if most of my classmates get a C than if they mainly get an A. But then I've little personal experience of giving grades - in adult education the students don't expect grades, they want results.

Cheers,

Glenys

PS At the moment it's true my students are submitting NanoGong assignments privately: they're EFL students and I'm asking them to learn and record songs in English. I foresaw some of them would not good singers so I didn't feel it right to ask them to sing "publicly". In fact, most of them sing pretty well. I'm thinking about how to make it more public...

Hi Ol,

I don't think you can in the standard 1.9 wiki unless you have php skills, but you can in the non standard OU wiki. On the "wiki changes" page you (and any user) can subscribe to an RSS feed which will inform you of changes.

Cheers,

Glenys
