Hi, Allison,

Just two quick questions:

Do you know which version of Moodle you are using?

Do you administer the site?

Hi, Beau,

Well, I guess Greenville Tech must have its reasons for going with BB.

Under the circumstances, I would take the same approach that you have, I am sure. After all, I like my job, too!

Maybe some Aiken HS students will find their way into your classes. Most of our students are very nice kids.

Good luck to you and happy Moodling for now.

Hi, Beau,

Greetings from Aiken, S.C.

I know this seems like an odd question, but does the same thing happen if you use a different theme?

P.S. Love your favicon.

My pleasure, Arjun.

Happy Moodling!

I think this is not exactly what you wanted, E Billy, but this has always helped me organize my courses:

Moodle needs to be flexible to cater for a wide variety of needs while remaining simple enough for ordinary teachers to start making good use of the power of the internet for community building and collaborative learning. My hope is that Moodle can be seen as a toolbox where they can start simply and naturally, and then progress to more and more advanced community facilitation over time. Ultimately, we'd like to see teachers being involved with and supported by a community of their peers.

Let's look at a typical progression that a teacher might go through as they learn to use the Moodle tools:

1. Putting up the handouts (Resources, SCORM)
2. Having a passive forum
3. Using Quizzes and Assignments (less management)
4. Using the Wiki, Glossary and Database tools (interactive content)
5. Using the Forum seriously and actively
6. Combining activities into sequences, where results feed later activities
7. Think deeper about each activity, advanced features, unusual applications
8. Using the Survey module to study and reflect on course activity
9. Using peer-review modules like Workshop
10. Conducting active research on oneself, sharing ideas in a community of peers

Sorry if it is not helpful to you.
