Contents
Chapter 1the approach the book will take to creating learning solutions, and briefly describes the educational principles and practices upon which the techniques are based. Chapter 2: Forum Solutions This chapter offers you solutions for managing your forums. The first two sections focus on making the best use of forums. The last two sections focus on managing your forums. Chapter 3: Chat Solutions The key to making the best use of Moodle s or any LMS s chat function is to use chat in a way that takes advantage of its unique strengths, instead of trying to make it act like a face-to-face meeting. In this chapter, we explore the questions What is chat good for? and How can I achieve success in an online chat? Because Moodle s chat function is similar to most other chat software, the answers to these questions apply more widely than just to Moodle. Chapter 4: Quiz Solutions A quiz can be more than just a test. At its best, a quiz can also become a learning experience. Moodle offers features that help you to accomplish that. This chapter gives you five ways to use Moodle quizzes for more than testing. Chapter 5: Lesson Solutions A Moodle lesson can be a powerful combination of instruction and assessment. Lessons offer the flexibility of a web page, the interactivity of a quiz, and branching capabilities. Chapter 6: Wiki Solutions We usually think of a wiki as a group activity that students engage in on their own schedule. A wiki is a powerful tool for collaboration, and it does enable students to participate in a group activity from anywhere at any time. However, a wiki can also be a powerful tool for individualized learning. This principle is called differential learning . It means that the learning experience should be customized for each student. With individual wikis, you can differentiate the learning experience for your students. Chapter 7: Glossary Solutions Most people think of glossaries as nothing more than special-purpose, online dictionaries. But a glossary can also be a fun collaborative activity for your class, and a teaching tool. Let s look at the capabilities of the Glossary module first, and then ideas for using glossaries for more than just vocabulary building. Chapter 8: The Choice Activity Moodle s Choice is the simplest type of activity. You can use a choice to: Take a quick poll, ask students to choose sides in a debate, confirm the students understanding of an agreement, and gather consent. Chapter 9: Course Solutions In this chapter, the solutions are focused on making your course easier to navigate. The goal of all these solutions is to reduce the time and effort your students spend figuring out what to do next, so they can get on with the learning. Sometimes, just slightly reducing the effort students spend on navigating through your course requires a great effort on your part. But almost anything you can do to help your students navigate easily through your course is worth the effort. The result is less time spent wondering what to do next, and more time spent on your course content. Chapter 10: Workshop Solution Moodle s Workshop module is one of the most complex, and powerful, activities. This chapter takes you through the process of creating a full-featured workshop. It focuses on helping you to make decisions that create the kind of workshop experience you want for your students.
