-
-<P>A special forum called "News" appears in the
- "weekly" and "topics" course formats. It's
- a good place to post notices for all students
- to see. (By default, all students are subscribed
- to this forum, and will receive your notices by
- email.)
-
-<P>This setting determines how many recent items
- appear on your course home page, in a news box
- down the right-hand side.

-
-<P>Moodle contains a wide range of activity modules that can be used to
- build up any type of course.</P>
-
-<P><IMG VALIGN=absmiddle SRC="<?php echo $CFG->wwwroot?>/mod/forum/icon.gif"> <B>Forums</B></P>
-<UL>
-<P>This activity can be the most important - it is here that most discussion takes place.
- Forums can be structured in different ways, and can include peer rating of each posting.
- The postings can be viewed in a variety for formats, and can include attachments.
- By subscribing to a forum, participants will receive copies of each new posting
- in their email. A teacher can impose subscription on everyone if they want to.
-</UL>
-
-<P><IMG VALIGN=absmiddle SRC="<?php echo $CFG->wwwroot?>/mod/journal/icon.gif"> <B>Journals</B></P>
-<UL>
-<P>This module is a very important reflective activity. The teacher
- asks the student to reflect on a particular topic, and the student can
- edit and refine their answer over time. This answer is private and
- can only be seen by the teacher, who can offer feedback and a grade
- on each journal entry. It's usually a good idea to have about one
- Journal activity per week.</P>
-</UL>
-
-<P><IMG VALIGN=absmiddle SRC="<?php echo $CFG->wwwroot?>/mod/resource/icon.gif"> <B>Resources</B></P>
-<UL>
-<P>Resources are content: information the teacher wants to bring into the
- course. These can be prepared files uploaded to the course
- server; pages edited directly in Moodle; or external web pages
- made to appear part of this course.</P>
-</UL>
-
-<P><IMG VALIGN=absmiddle SRC="<?php echo $CFG->wwwroot?>/mod/assignment/icon.gif"> <B>Assignments</B></P>
-<UL>
-<P>Assignments allow the teacher to specify a task that requires students
- to prepare digital content (any format) and submit it by uploading it
- to the server. Typical assignments include essays, projects, reports
- and so on. This module includes grading facilities.</P>
-</UL>
-
-<P><IMG VALIGN=absmiddle SRC="<?php echo $CFG->wwwroot?>/mod/quiz/icon.gif"> <B>Quizzes</B></P>
-<UL>
-<P>This module allows the teacher to design and set quiz tests, consisting of
- multiple choice, true-false, and short answer questions. These
- questions are kept in a categorised database, and can be re-used
- within courses and even between courses. Quizzes can allow
- multiple attempts. Each attempt is automatically marked, and the
- teacher can choose whether to give feedback or to show correct answers.
- This module includes grading facilities.</P>
-</UL>
-
-<P><IMG VALIGN=absmiddle SRC="<?php echo $CFG->wwwroot?>/mod/choice/icon.gif"> <B>Choices</B></P>
-<UL>
-<P>A choice activity is very simple - the teacher asks a question and specifies a
- choice of multiple responses. It can be useful as a quick poll to
- stimulate thinking about a topic; to allow the class to vote on
- a direction for the course; or to gather research consent.
-</UL>
-
-<P><IMG VALIGN=absmiddle SRC="<?php echo $CFG->wwwroot?>/mod/survey/icon.gif"> <B>Surveys</B></P>
-<UL>
-<P>The Survey module provides a number of verified survey instruments that
- have been found useful in assessing and stimulating learning in
- online environments. Teachers can use these to gather data from their
- students that will help them learn about their class and reflect
- on their own teaching.</P>

-<P ALIGN=CENTER><B>Uploading a picture</B></P>
-
-<P>You can upload a picture from your computer to this server, and this picture will be used in various places to represent you.
-<P>For this reason, the best images to use are a close-up of your face, but you can use any image you like.
-<P>The picture must be in JPG or PNG format (ie the names will usually end in .jpg or .png).
-<P>You can get a picture file using one of four methods:
-
-<OL>
-<LI>Using a digital camera, your photos will most likely already be on your computer in the right format.
-<LI>You can use a scanner to scan a printed photograph. Make sure you save it as JPG or PNG format.
-<LI>If you're artistic, you might draw a picture using a paint program.
-<LI>Lastly, you can "steal" images from the web. <A TARGET=google HREF="http://images.google.com/">http://images.google.com</A> is a superb place to search for images. Once you find one, you can "right-click" on them with the mouse and choose "Save this image..." from the menu (different computers may vary slightly).
-</OL>
-
-<P>To upload the image, click the "Browse" button on this editing page, and select the image from your hard disk.
-<P>NOTE: Make sure that the file is not larger than the maximum size listed, or it will not be uploaded.
-<P>Then click "Update my Profile" at the bottom - the image file will be cropped to a square and resized down to 100x100 pixels.
-<P>When you are taken back to your profile page, the image might not appear to have changed. If this is so, just use the "Reload" button in your browser.

-<P ALIGN=CENTER><B>Questions</B></P>\r
-\r
-<P>A good way to help other people think about a subject is to \r
- ask them a question about it. Being asked a good question\r
- can really help us put information together, evaluate our\r
- existing ideas and create new ideas.</P>\r
-\r
-<P>Asking questions that are specifically intended to help \r
- others learn is known as <I>Socratic questioning</I>, named\r
- after Socrates in Ancient Greece.</P>\r
-\r
-<P>Socratic questions require you to listen very carefully\r
- to the other person to help you judge and phrase your question\r
- in a helpful, constructive, and hopefully non-confrontational way.\r
-\r
-<P>Here are some examples of such questions:</P>\r
-\r

- <li>All of your reasoning depends on the idea that _____. Why have you based your reasoning on _____ instead of _____?</li>\r
- <li>You seem to be assuming _____. How do you justify taking that for granted?</li>\r
- <li>Is that always the case? Why do you think the assumption holds here?</li>\r
- <li>Why would someone make that assumption? </li>\r
-</ul>\r
-<h3>Questions that probe reasons and evidence</h3>\r
-<ul>\r
- <li>Could you explain your reasons to us?</li>\r
- <li>How does that apply to this case?</li>\r
- <li>Is there a reason to doubt that evidence?</li>\r
- <li>Who is in a position to know that is true?</li>\r
- <li>What would you say to someone who said that ____?</li>\r
- <li>Can someone else give evidence to support that view?</li>\r
- <li>By what reasoning did you come to that conclusion?</li>\r
- <li>How could we find out if that is true? </li>\r
-</ul>\r
-<h3>Questions about viewpoints or perspectives </h3>\r
-<ul>\r

-
-<P>When writing text in Moodle there are currently two formats you can choose
- to produce your text, depending on your expertise and the type of browser
- you are using.
-
-<P><B>Usually you can just leave this setting alone and things should
- work as you expect</B>.
-
-<P><B>1. Moodle auto-format</B></P>
-
-<UL>
-<P>This format is best for when you are using normal web forms for entry
- (instead of the Richtext HTML editor). Just type text normally, as if you
- were sending an email.
-
-<P>When you save your text, Moodle will do a number of things to automatically
- format your text for you.
-<P>For example, URLs such as
- <A HREF="http://yahoo.com/">http://yahoo.com</A> or even
- <A HREF="http://www.yahoo.com/">www.yahoo.com</A> will be turned into links.
-<P>Your line breaks will be retained, and blank lines will start new paragraphs.
-<P>Smiley characters such as :-) will automatically become their graphical equivalents.
-<P>You can even embed HTML code if you want to and it will be retained.

- HTML editor to edit text then this is the default format - all

-<P>Even if you are not using the Richtext HTML editor, you can use HTML code
- in your text and it should come out exactly as you intended.

-\r
-<P>When writing text for others to read, try and write directly to your audience.</P>\r
-\r
-<P>Explain your ideas as clearly and simply as you can to help avoid misunderstandings.\r
- One thing you can do is to avoid long words when a short one will do.</P>\r
-\r
-<P>In the forums it will really help to keep your whole posts short and on-topic. \r
- Instead of one long rambling post that makes many different points, it may be\r
- better to write several shorter ones (they may even belong in separate forums).\r
-\r
-<P>Re-edit your text as much as necessary until you get it right. \r
- Even in forum posts you have <?PHP echo ($CFG->maxeditingtime/60) ?> minutes \r
- after you've posted it to go back and improve it if necessary.</P>\r
-\r
-<P>When replying to others, try and think of interesting questions you \r
- can ask them. This will help both you and the other person think (and learn!)\r
- about the subject you are discussing.</P>\r
