Hi all
In response to Kent's email below, are people interested in the technical side of Moodle such as set up, installation and trouble shooting, or more about how to use it across the curriculum?
Also, if you are interested in presenting PD on Moodle we'd like to hear from you.

Thanks, Caroline (VITTA)
