[Moodle] Another Ultranet query...Kent

[Phil Brown]

In stage 2 of the Ultranet you will be able to attach VELS outcomes to
activities. This means students will get a VELS level when the activity is
assessed. With Parent access they will be able to review the assessment and
make comments. Eventually we will do away with paper reports and go to
reporting in real time. VELS will stay with the student throughout the life
of the student providing data for developmental assessment. Sure we can
continue to use Moodle or any other useful technology but at the end of the
day we will have to assess and report through the Ultranet.
