Hot off the press is a quick read about one of the most established VLE-using, UK-based school, Our Lady’s High School Preston (home of Mary Cooch, @Moodlefairy).
A few cool tidbits:
- The Moodle site is their website
- Extensive use of the Book module provides for an easy to navigate web hierarchy that stores loads of school related information and event coverage
- Saving teacher time and effort (by utilizing automatic grading) is a huge benefit to students as well (because they instantly know their grades) and “so we can keep trying again and again to get a higher grade,” says one student (pg. 2)
- The pride in their school’s website is tangible
Hit the link for more information and access to the quick read (well worth it), especially if you’re school is evaluating the implementation of Moodle.
