[Moodle] site visit or suggestions

Fri Apr 7 01:41:35 EST 2006

Hello Moodlers,

6.30pm Easter Monday sounds fine for a 'Moodle in a Bar' session. What about others? I guess it would be good for me to know how many people would like to come so I can book a Moodlers table/space. Please email back to myself (edumail addy please) or the list. I do not have access to projector or screen these days, maybe someone can offer? Or can we just set up laptops with moodle sites and share them around? I will insist hubby provides some complimentaries of some sort. 

Thanks George for the suggestion of the time, and Laurie for nice comments about grandma's. Roland and Laurie (Moodle gurus!!!) - I am praying you will be available. 

If you want to check the menu grandma's website is www.grandmafunks.com.au (sorry it is your basic FP site - it's all I know for web design!! - feel free to criticise tho!!). 

Hotspot should be active Thursday 13th or Good Friday

I am currently trying to set Moodle up on one of my own webhost servers as I really believe my classes will benefit and I can't get it to them any other way, but having major problems just uploading it *sigh*

Sorry for my sporadic replies this year but I really am 'chronologically challenged',  having taken up a full time position, without losing any of my other committments. (Stop whining Ros!!)

Cheers to all

Home computers are being called upon to perform many new functions, including the consumption of homework formerly eaten by the dog.

Hello Roslyn

What a good idea.  I would like to join fellow Moodlers for a chat, a show off & a beer.  This will never happen if we keep searching for venue.    Richmond is central to Melbourne. gRandMa funks 276 Swan St Richmond. I propose that we just get Moodlers together in your Cafe and set up a laptop, projector & screen, and give each visitor  max 5 minutes to show off their Moodle site.  "Show us your Moodle best".  Finger food and coffee for the original meeting at 276 Swan St Richmond.  What about Easter Monday at an early geek hour of 6:30 pm.  

No need to fuss about the wireless hotspot for this meeting.  Just internet access would suffice.

	>Hi all
	>
	>My hubby and I own a cafe/bar in Richmond and I am in the process of setting up a 'Hotspot' - waiting for optus modem atm - estimated delivery time is another 7 days. Presuming all the software and everything works ok should be about 2 weeks before we become active. I would be quite happy to host a 'moodle in a bar' session. We seat about 60 inside and another 20 outside. gRandMa funks 276 Swan St Richmond. Roland feel free to call me on 0412 614 062 and we can set up a choice of times and dates if you like. People from the other lists (IPM?) may be interested too.
