Using Moodle as a course delivery system is quite interesting, while not replacing real-time, face-to-face contact, it is a wonderful way to give and get documents, share resources, administer quizzes, upload content, and many other things. So much easier (& cheaper than Blackboard), using it in teaching Alaska History for Educators has helped me learn more about Moodle, and value its strengths. Tomorrow I am to to train teachers how to use it, so it will become even more important to learn how to use it. Some teachers do not want to learn another system, interface or web-based teaching tool. I can't say I blame them, with all of the user-unfriendly programs that ae a part of their day, this is one more burden. We will try to make it fun, bring candy...games...puppies...
