mdrabble Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 I'm wondering if anyone on here that uses Moodle has set up a course for Extended Project Qualification. If yes, please could you let me know how you have set it up please. Many thanks :-) 1
CyberNerd Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 One Course; owned by co-ordinator. Add the cohort of students. Sections divided into: EPQ Student Toolkit TAUGHT SKILLS Project examples Teachers- Getting started How to be a better student hidden topic for teachers. 1
mdrabble Posted October 22, 2015 Author Posted October 22, 2015 Thanks for the reply. I have been handed a powerpoint presentation from another school showing how they deliver EPQ online using a system called Vista (which is their in house system) I have a feeling looking at the screen shots that the member of staff who is going to be delivering this, will want it looking the same or a near as. It looks like students complete and store everything online. They have screenshots of students entering Candidate Declarations, Recording of Initial Planning....... Oh the joys!!
CyberNerd Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 they deliver EPQ online using a system called Vista (which is their in house system) Named after a quality brand :-) Google classroom might also be a good way to store/mark online.
unixman_again Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 I've had a look at ours and it doesn't look any different to the other courses that are on Moodle, except that it isn't set to self-enrollment.

I have been handed the same presentation and have got to come up with something similar too.. Looks to be designed by an in house software dev team to me and on the email I was handed with the PPT, they say it's easy to duplicate ! (Yeah right !!)
philspokes Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Not Moodle, but have set up a pretty detailed and bespoke EPQ using itslearning so the principles are the same. Split the course in to units (topics on Moodle) ie. Unit 1: Introducing the Extended Project. Topic includes activties/resources suce as PPTs/PDFs, Pro-Formas, eportfolio activity and quiz. Activities throughout prompt the students in to providing evidence. Happy to show anyone who is interested. 1
Trojan Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 .....eportfolio activity ..... What eportfolio activity do you use- is it a plugin ? Thanks.
philspokes Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Itslearning has an eportfolio function built in so we used that. Moodle does have eportfolio plug ins available though. Mahara is probably the best to my knowledge. 1
mdrabble Posted October 23, 2015 Author Posted October 23, 2015 Ive been pointed to Project Q - ProjectQ - The complete student software management resource for HPQ and EPQ to look at as an example. I've turned round and told the person who is planning to run it to use them for the 1st year. The member of staff has a fixed idea that they was to X,Y and Z with no idea if Moodle can even do the things they are asking. It basically the blind leading the blind! They have no idea how they are running it yet and they are giving me even less information to set up the Moodle course.
