danIT Posted January 6, 2009 Posted January 6, 2009 I know were all looking forward to BETT next week but anyone planning to attend the UK MoodleMoot in April (Easter Hols) at Loughborough Uni?
secretlife Posted January 6, 2009 Posted January 6, 2009 yes me ... oh... and it's not in our Easter hols; it's our last week of term!
gaz350 Posted January 6, 2009 Posted January 6, 2009 ooo up the road(15 miles or so), might just do that
russdev Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 Just can't find a way to get school to pay for it (as we don't use moodle) but as uni is 10 minutes away from work would love to go... Russ p.s The url for event is http://moodlemoot.org/course/view.php?id=8#Schedule
Gatt Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 Will pass this on as we've just started using Moodle so may be worth a visit..
Butters Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 Will pass this on as we've just started using Moodle so may be worth a visit.. We are just dipping out toes fully into the Moodle waters and they've paid for me to go and attend the extra modules. Now, can we hit the Student Union or is that frowned upon?
penfold_99 Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 Will pass this on as we've just started using Moodle so may be worth a visit.. I will be there, i am trying to put forward a break out 20 min session on the SIMS.net integration
