Objectives Provide technical knowledge about the Moodle database activity, teach how to use the activity with specific relevant information regarding the use of blended learning activities. Raise awareness about pedagogical and methodological skills and differences vis-a-vis traditional teaching methods to effectively implement blended learning activities in the classroom. Raise awareness on the need for a new "digital pedagogy" that will cater to IT-savvy students who are digital-natives.

Participants should have a decent command of Windows, and be familiar with Internet Explorer or Firefox and general Windows file management.

This is a "learning by doing" and "learning while doing" course. There are no real lectures; instead the instructions and tutorials are delivered in a step by step fashion, and participants will be invited to gradually explore the learning environment. Following the educational principles of social constructivism which lie at the basis of Moodle, participants will be actively involved and will develop -alone or in small groups- activities for direct use in their lessons, using the full set of applications offered by the Moodle Course Management System.

Session 1 Moodle Quiz

In this first and only session you'll learn how to create Moodle quiz activities. We'll explore the ins & outs of the different settings & parameters so that at the end of the session you'll be able to create just the activities you wanted.

Participants get access to the online course material. They are also entitled to one month of full follow-up support via the trouble ticket system.

If you want more information on the content of this workshop, or if you would like to organize this workshop at your school, then please do not hesitate to contact us.

Also, please note that this is not a crash computer course for beginners, but a course that combines technology and pedagogy: it aims to address language teachers who already know how to use the computer, and want to learn how to use these tools to improve their language teaching. Participants should have a decent command of Windows, and be familiar with Internet Explorer or Firefox and general Windows file management. Due to the limited amount of time during the course, tutors will not be able to help participants lacking these general basic computer skills.
