If you follow this blog you already know about the advantages of Moodle™ core reports and the enhanced Joule Reports. Open LMS Summer 2012 release included several features to assist instructors and facilitators within Joule LMS.
Open LMS Inc. recently made a great contribution the open-source Moodle™ community by releasing the Flexpage course format for Moodle™ 2. Flexpage is one of the most versatile course formats created for Moodle™ 1.x and its new and improved version is now available for anyone who wants to install the module in their Moodle™ 2 instance.
Our recent Summer 2012 release of Joule included two advanced grading methods: Moodle™ core’s Rubric and our Joule Checklist. If you were already using Joule’s marking tables, they were automatically upgraded to Moodle™ core rubrics. If you were using the Joule checklist, they were upgraded to the Joule checklist.
A few weeks ago we launched our Joule Summer 2012 Release. Within that release we made a great new feature available called "Joule Grader." If you are an instructor you will fall in love this powerful new grading tool!
As a teacher I promoted high–level thinking by placing students in situations where they needed to solve problems within the context of projects research investigations laboratory experimentation etc.
As every educator knows a rubric is a scoring tool typically used for formative assessments. Rubrics can be especially helpful when used for assessments that may be subjective in nature.
A syllabus should be the “go to” document for students in any course no matter its’ delivery method. An effective syllabus should eliminate the possibility of confusion on the part of your students as it should answer relatively any question they might have about the course and course components.
Do the images in your course take a long time to load? Does it look like images are loading from the top-down? Do the images in your course look really close to the text? Do your images look distorted and/ pixelated?
As a course builder creating compiling and combining content in an effective and meaningful way for your learners is of the utmost importance.
