Our Moodle site


I just wanted to show you a screenshot of our Moodle site, since it is a very central part of the course we are doing. Apart from the weekly seminars in videoconference, and as part of the seminars, we have spent quite a lot of time putting together this "virtual seminar room" where we have put all the textual resources we need (and more), we have the weekly schedule with pdf files of the texts we are discussing, an image collection, powerpoints, and the web2.0 solutions we use on a weekly basis to assist students in colaborating on ideas and small projects relating to the seminars, such as conducting a forum discussion about types and functions of memory, and this week, the students are working on a blog (see link to the left) recording their interests in and findings of local, national and global sites of memory that correspond to the "England, England" heritage park we read about in Julian Barnes's novel. If you would like to visit our Moodle site, please send me an email, and I'll tell you have to find it.
