This document discusses strategies for bridging the divide between online and distance students. It presents 5 scenarios that use mobile and web technologies to connect students: 1) Using an LMS like Moodle to connect rural health students. 2) Employing blogs and podcasts for an eLearning module. 3) Adopting cloud tools like Google and wikis for a short ICT course. 4) A blended model with mobile apps and an LMS for a math program. 5) Web conferencing software for virtual classrooms between rural and urban clinical students. The examples illustrate how various technologies can help reduce isolation, foster communication and feedback, and build community for distant learners.
A short presentation highlighting a few powerful yet easy tools with which a facilitator can reach out to students, and enrich his/ her teaching practice with the use of a blended learning approach.
CHECIT To ple or not to ple - that is not the questionJP Bosman
This document discusses the differences between learning management systems (LMS) and personal learning environments (PLE). An LMS is a centralized system used by educational institutions to deliver content and track learning, while a PLE refers to the collection of online tools and services learners use for self-directed study. The author describes their experience using various LMS platforms over time and how views have shifted from seeing LMS as the primary learning tool to recognizing PLEs' role in giving learners more control. They argue LMS and PLE should be integrated, with LMS providing core functions and PLE allowing more flexibility.
The document summarizes the key takeaways from the eLearning Africa 2010 conference. It discusses several important points:
1) Academics and professionals from African universities and companies have a unique perspective to contribute to global discussions on e-learning, especially regarding mobile learning, health education, and resource-scarce contexts.
2) New technologies and ideas in Africa should be "homegrown" rather than imported, as local innovation can lead to creative solutions for global issues in fields like health and education.
3) The concepts of "developed" and "developing" should be reexamined, as definitions of development may vary in different contexts.
4) Mobile learning should be a research and implementation

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
