Intute has launched a Welsh translation of the “Internet Detective”
tutorial as a free download for universities and colleges to make available
via their Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs).
The new Welsh translation and download files were generously provided by
staff from the eLearning and translation departments at Coleg
Meirion-Dwyfor, and while created for Moodle, should also be suitable for
use in other VLE software.
Download the Welsh VLE version “Gwe-dditectif” from:
http://www.vts.intute.ac.uk/detective/downloads.html
(Simply download the zip file into Moodle and unzip from within the site.
Then “add a file or website” with the file “index_w” as the target ? there
is an index file for each of the sections of the tutorial in their
respective folders).
The tutorial is being publicised to universities and colleges in Wales by
JISC RSC Wales.
