[Year 12 IPM] School Shutdown

[Roland Gesthuizen]

Moodle is a snap to install, and use. From memory, we got it running in 
less than an hour at our school and I notice that even that Netspace now 
provide it as a service for their education customers.

I am keen to use the Moodle blogging component scheduled for release 
with version 1.6  and try out some of the eLearning porfolio stuff that 
others have done for their MIPs surveys etc. Amongst his other splendid 
lists, Kevork has kindly created a mailing list for the growing moodle 
community that is readily searchable for ideas and links. 
http://www.edulists.com.au   :-) worth a look in.

Regards Roland
