Editor's Notes

  1. Welcome everyone to the Lambda Solutions sponsored webinar for Bccampus Moodle Users Group. We are very happy you were able to take the time to join us for a half-hour today. This is the second “Half hour how-to” in a series of webinars we have planned in partnership with BCCampus Shared Services. To help Moodle users understand and utilize some of the features of Moodle 2, we are hosting, once a month, short targeted webninars key Moodle 2 features. Our goal is to support you in best utilizing some of the great features of Moodle. Introduce the Webinar Tool.
  2. From a student standpoint, this can provide clear guidance to where they should be focusing their attention. It also helps address the confusion that can arise from a long course page of resources. From a teacher standpoint, this can ensure students have completed assigned work and demonstrate desired learning outcomes. From an administrative standpoint, tracking of completion at the course level can be extremely value for pre-requist and other purposes.
  3. Lambda Solutions is proud to partner with BCcampus Shared Services for the provision of Moodle to BC post-secondaries. Lambda Solutions is an accredited Moodle Partner. We have been providing Moodle hosting, configuration, customization, and have contributing Moodle since 2003. We realize that some of today’s participants are not part of Bccampus Shared Services.
