When I was ILT Champion at the City of Stoke-on-Trent Sixth Form College, I
maintained a section on the VLE (Moodle) called "The Playground" which was
filled with ideas of how to use a VLE, all clearly illustrated with how to
set up whatever I was talking about. While the actual 'how-to' sequences
were Moodle-based, much was of general application. I hope it will be of use
to my former colleagues now that I have been made redundant and am no longer
there to ask!
In between job applications, I shall try to recreate a similar facility on a
Moodle I've set up on my own webserver... once there is something to look at
I shall make the address public for you all to enjoy.
