Hi Elena
I am delighted that you have been advancing the cause of WebPA. Having been
involved in the development of the tool over many years in the past, I have
rather withdrawn from such activities more recently and allowed others to
take this forward. Being out of date with developments, and totally ignorant
of the technical programming aspects, I do not feel well placed to take a
leading part in your proposed workshop.
I recommend that you should write to the webPA forum [log in to unmask]
to tell the user group about your activities and ask for the help/person you
need to actively participate. The most knowledgeable person I know in this
respect is Paul Newman – who is the man who actually wrote all the original
code – he is a senior IT technician at Loughborough. He can also tell you
how to link with Moodle etc. Another person who has loads of knowledge is
Steven Vickers – who does not work at Loughborough. Note that neither of
these people are academic users.
I would be pleased to write a few words in my capacity as the originator of
the system if that would help – what sort of thing do you have in mind?
I hope you are well and prosperous.
Peter
