Thinking outside Moodle
I have an enthusiastic bunch of students in my online Level 1 ICT course, how fabulous is that! While most of the delivery is through Moodle I wanted to introduce some other Web 2.0 tools which they might like to try to present some research.
We are just about to start a new topic on digital imagery and web design. As we have some late starters to the course it seemed like the ideal opportunity to get a group research project going and have students work collaboratively online with their distant peers. That way they could get to know one another and find out what they think makes for good web site design. They could present their findings in whatever format they liked, this basic Padlet was the springboard for their ideas.
