Sharing Tips
In her recent comments, fellow teacher and moodler Mary Cooch (known also as @moodlefairy) mentioned how the staff at their school spend a couple of minutes of their weekly meetings talking about their use of Moodle in the classroom. I loved the idea and in the brief email exchange that followed hinted that I will try to use it here at our school too.
This afternoon, I had a cryptic staff meeting agenda item called ‘Share’.
When I got my turn to speak, I simply asked:
‘Could you please share ONE thing or strategy you have found Moodle useful for in your classroom.”
Silence. Tick, tock, tick, tock – 15 seconds.
Then it opened. What followed was just about the best 8 minutes of my three years at this school - 10 short stories, 10 people, 10 different uses, 10 different skill levels. Genuine, specific, relevant, encouraging … and more we haven’t heard because of the crammed agenda.
I’m going to use it in an upcoming preso! Thanks again, Tomaz and Mary!
