Setting up an Intranet

Over at Preston Reservoir ACE, we’re slowly setting up an intranet. Anyone on the site can set up their own “blog” (diary, or journal). This could be useful for reflective learning in the classroom: teachers could encourage students to post thoughts on their own learning progress.

There’s so much going on in the world of learning- with- technology, that it would be great to involve the wonderful teachers at PRACE even more. I’m hoping this place will help us share our knowledge more effectively.

We’re using moodle, the popular, open source “learning management system” software.
But do we want our learning “managed”?
.. and how flexible is this system really?

By the way, the image top right is one of my favourites, and is free to use, as long as i tell you where i got it. Eisenrah, at flickr.com, published this image with a “Creative Commons licence” (search from that link).
