Holiday Reading for Coventry University staff

My Holiday Reading Moodle Course now has over 50 people enrolled on it. This online course was introduced at the Technology for Teaching at the Learning and Development Conference

Topics include:
  • Differences between Moodle 1 and Moodle 2

 Participants won't see everything at once as they will need to complete some activities and not all topics have been released yet.
