[Moodle] Batting for dfWiki and Moodle

[Roland Gesthuizen]

There have been some online Moodle discussions 
<http://moodle.org/mod/forum/view.php?f=366> about the integration of 
dfWiki into Moodle <http://www.moodle.org/>. This is software that looks 
and behaves very much like the familiar MediaWiki engine used by 
Wikipedia <http://en.wikipedia.org/>. When this happens, Moodle Wiki 
projects created by students can be readily exported and imported into 
other Moodle courses, making them easier to move around, archive etc. 
There is a home for the DFWIKI - Moodle integration project 
<http://appserv.lsi.upc.es/palangana/moodle/course/view.php?id=15> where 
they have provided a dfWiki Moodle sandbox 
<http://appserv.lsi.upc.es/palangana/moodle/mod/dfwiki/view.php?id=178&page=sandbox> 
for teachers to dig in and get a feel for this new tool.

If you havnt seen a Wiki before, check out the contribution that I 
created about the cricketer Johnny Mullagh 
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_Mullagh>. I was having a coffee 
with colleague last year and we noticed a missing page that was just 
begging to be written. It was a good introduction to Wiki's for us both. 
Our brief contribution has since been since been updated and nicely 
reformatted.

Regards Roland
