Just finished a session with some colleagues from Theology. Their situation is unique in that they have outreach centres across the North in which Theology is taught by offsite tutors to a range of students in those areas. Ripon, Sheffield, York, Leeds are just a few. They teaching is done across 3 terms, not 2 semesters. We'll be piloting moodle with a few of these outreach centres after Christmas.
Here are some questions which arose from the session:
Can we increase the upload limit within moodle? It's currently set to 2MB, but that's not enough for some module handbooks.
The course formats were explored. The newly installed 'Page Format' seemed to confuse most users because it wasn't intuitive to use. 2 people got caught in a loop, which I needed to login as admin to reset. Wondering if this is a suitable course format and whether we should uninstall to avoid future confusion?
A request was made for moodle to detect module occurences (unlike BB), so that each of the students in the offsite centres has their own moodle area. Hopefully this will be resolved from within the SITS interface, so that administrators can set a flag to determine whether a module needs a moodle area. Wondering if this is still possible? It seemed to be from earlier conversations with Gareth.
