[Moodle] Moodle or WikiSpaces ?

[Laurie Savage]

Moodle has wiki and Blogging as subsets of the whole package. I use it to
automate testing and grading, post work samples and work sheets, grade
assignments, chat with students, post news items .... Our librarian and
environmental science people have run online communities with it. Roland
Gesthuizen is the guy to talk with - he has taken it to the next level and
uses Moodle as his school's Internet Site - parent pages, teacher pages etc.

Hi Vik,



I have students doing Cert III Unit 3&4, Cert II, and Cert III Unit 1&2 in
my class.



I am looking for a complete e-learning environment which will be financially

affordable for me.




I started to create Wikispaces site for my class :



https://coriobaysc.wikispaces.com



Just recently I have found that my School has a Interactive Whiteboard and 
also is registered with  Moodle . smthing Western Suburbs  - I will found it

when I will be at school (I work 1 day a week)



My school also is a Registered Training Organisation and offers 16 VET 
certificates.



Could you let me know do you use Moodle?



Thanks





Helen
