Subject: Re: [Year 12 IPM] OT: VELS ICT
That raises two fascinating issues that are worth raising with your
students. As my teacher-librarian is at pains to point out when I explored
backing up the school video collection, we shouldn't confuse issues of
archiving with those for digital storage.
Good archiving demands the skills of a highly trained and experienced
individual to maintain, prune and perhaps the oversee the ultimate
destruction of data in the archive. The expectation that a school will to
archive all the student electronic portfolios work for remote access beyond
their term of stay is probably unreasonable. Commercial software vendors
would like to make us think that a one stop solution will continue to be
supported for another decade and serve school needs. Only a few schools had
a website 10 years ago, I wont try to predict where we will be in another
10. In 20 years we may laugh at many of our quaint ideas and practices.
Another issue is that of digital decay. Today's digital documents face a
more serious threat: the disappearance of computers and software able to
read them. Some of my older documents can already no longer be read by MS
Office (the list of file imports is getting smaller with each release). With
perhaps some scorn leveled at me by colleagues, I have taken the lead from
the Australian National Library and insist on using a standards driven
format called OpenDocument to archive my work for long term storage. Without
emulators, I will happily buy a bunch of flowers in 2020 for anybody who
will still be able to open my first experiments with Kahootz. (We cannot
legally copy, redistribute or media shift commercial software on that ..
hmm, was it called a CDROM?) If only I could get Easycal working again, I
could recover my first ever spreadsheet .. then again, I could always start
with Load Runner and Canyon Climber .. where did I put that 5.25" drive hmm
:-)

Moodle sounds great, but I'm not familiar enough with it, therefore the
question...
Can students continue to use thier moodle page after leaving the school?

Digital portfolios are a breeze with moodle.... Just create a course called
ePortfolio and create as many sections as you wish. Automatically students
have a secure private place to add text, graphics and multimedia
content.....
I have even added a section for parents to view all their past reports
online.....

Hello everyone,
Now that the IPM classes are over, I've been looking more carefully at the
VELS stuff. From Level 3, our students are meant to be keeping a digital
bank of evidence... How are others going to work this? Any ideas?
Thanks, Lesley
