Oooh, Helen,

I should have thought of that myself.

Thanks!

What a lovely post, Donna. Classy.

I would be happy to do some BETA testing, too. We have a couple of teachers who really like it.

Interesting conversation. For what it is worth... When teachers tell me they "just want to make a quiz," I show them Hot Potatoes. That seems to make them happy. They are happy, shiny Moodlers.

But most of the teachers I work with get the hang of the quiz mod pretty quickly: add questions, set up quiz, add questions to quiz. It's the details that take some time. The most frequent question, by the way, is, "How do I get rid of all these submit buttons?"

Thank you to everyone for thrashing these things out. What a great community!

Hi, Ahmet,

I, too, am currently using version 1.8.4, so that's good.

For the primary school course, I am using Michael Penney's Flexpage course format -- http://www.moodlerooms.com/intel.html. That makes it very easy to put in the tabs or not, get rid of menus or not, and so on. It takes a little getting used to, but it is great for this sort of thing!

For the "Listen " bit on each page, I just record the text on the page and save it as an MP3. Then I upload it to Moodle. When I link to that file, Moodle creates a Flash player for it. I just have to add the ear.

I hope that is a little helpful. (The primary school teachers here have been quite positive about it.)

Best regards,
Art
