-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Moodleforge, which is a schoolforge.org.uk project, is about using Moodle to provide communication and collaboration tools for groups of educators, in much the same way as Edna groups do down in Oz (see http://www.groups.edna.edu.au/course/view.php?id=40), but with the expectation that at least some of these groups will use it as a platform to work collectively at creating moodle courses, with, it is hoped, creative commons licences.
I've been far too busy with the day job these last few weeks to get things set up, but we have hosting, thanks to Andy Trevor of Cutter, and Edna have said we can use some of their materials, so it's just waiting for me (or someone with more time and/or talent) to get things off the ground. Ryan's notion of getting edubuntu to automatically submit teaching material to some central repository is technically appealing, but I for one would prefer to polish things a bit before they make it out into a shared repository. More interesting would be to leaverage the collaborative principals underpinning wiki, or good old cvs, for e-learning materials - this is kinda what we hope to achieve with moodleforge in part, but moodle doesn't yet have any real version control. In the meantime, if folks are putting together moodle courses they're happy to share, there is a repository over at the Moodle Exchange, see http://moodle.org/course/view.php?id=15 John Ingleby wrote: > Ryan, > > Miles Berry is assembling a site called Moodleforge - > http://www.moodleforge.org.uk - with just such an aim in mind.
