Moodle is more than a course or learning management system. Moodle is a great way for teachers to connect with their students and colleagues and learn. Learning on Moodle provides both teachers and students with a learning/teaching enviornment. Moodle for Teachers (M4T) will guide you on how to use Moodle for instruction and learning.

Sharing for Learning
Learning to share is a very important aspect of learning. Posting your reflections for everyone to learn from during a workshop is very important. Connecting with the facilitators to add your feedback limits the scope and lessons learned to 1 or 2 people. If you missed a few sessions of a class and wish to continue collaborating, which I encourage everyone to do, please add your thoughts on a blog and share it with the world. This way you don't limit your audience and everyone benefits. However, don't forget to share the link with the class participants so they can learn and respond.

Dariem Garces and Dr. Nellie Deutsch have a hosting company called Integrating Technology, hosting and consulating services (ITHCS). We install or help install for our Moodle for Teacher administrator workshop participants, support, and provide consultation services for any teacher for $120 a year.
ITHCS is the only organization that provides unlimited number of email notifications. Shared hosting and most hosting companies do not allow unlimited number of email notifications as they crash their servers. I was kicked out of a few hosting companies for having too many email notifications. It's a Moodle feature that causes problems. We provide consultation on Moodle to a few universities around the world and to teachers who want to use Moodle.
Don't be discouraged if you hosting company doesn't support your Moodle webstie. Similar things happened to me when I first started my Moodle in 2004. I was lucky to have met Dariem who helped me. Dariem and I worked on the WebQuest Module for Moodle. Dariem is the developer of the Module. I used to create WebQuests so we teamed up. He was doing his Masters in computer science and I had begun my doc program at the Univeristy of Phoenix.

Moodle for Teachers (M4T) 2013 EVO online workshop will take place on a Moodle website called Integrating Technology for Active Lifelong Learning (IT4ALL). The aim of the M4T workshop is to provide participants, who have never used Moodle or who would like to enrich their previous Moodle experiences, with the knowledge and skills to navigate a Moodle course, access resources, activities, and blocks from a student perspective and practice the same Moodle features in class practice sections as teachers. The participants will develop a lesson or course on Moodle.
The workshop will include both asynchronous (not dependent on time) and synchronous (time dependent) learning environments. The asynchronous will be conducted on the Moodle and the synchronous learning environment will be conducted on WizIQ (free premium accounts for educators) in the Moodle. Participants will watch tutorials, post to the discussion forums, and practiceMoodle tools with the roles of a student and teacher.
Goal
The goal of the M4T EVO 2013 course is to help educators ensure the quality of online learning through systematic instructional design of online and blended online courses (BOL) and instructor training on online pedagogies.
Description
This intensive five-week workshop is designed to engage the participants in theoretical and practical aspects of online learning and teaching with a Learning Management System (LMS) called Moodle. Participants or Moodlers as they are called will be introduced to the Moodle philosophy and course development tools. By successfully completing the program, participants will have acquired the knowledge and skills needed to create basic Moodle resources and activities for blended online learning (BOL) or blended learning (BL) courses. As online learners, participants will understand online learning from the student's perspective so they can prepare their future courses with the learner in mind.
Workload & Format
M4T EVO 2013 requires participants to be active at least 10 hours a week on theoretical and practical aspects of online learning (individually and in teams). Participants will learn about resources, activities, and blocks as students and practice the role of a teacher in setting up resources and activities. In addition, teacher will have access to the admin settings for courses and for user enrolments.
Participants will be actively involved in the course. The tasks involved creating video tutorials. Participants will learn to use screensharing (jing, screen-o-matic, present me, screenr) and authoring tools (Youtube, Vimeo, Bliptv, Vocaroo)
Screensharing tools for tutorials.
Jing (requires download) Screenr (no download) Screencastomatic (no download) Vocaroo (no download) Present Me (no download)

What better way to teach and learn via Moodle. Moodle is a free course and learning management system (CMS & LMS) that allows teachers to cater to students' individual needs.

Twitter Hacker on the Loose!
FYI, there's a hacker with a great spam if you fall for it, which I did. It comes from your twitter contacts and it says someone is saying bad things about you. A link follows the message. If you click on the link, your twitter account is hacked and it begins to send the spam. I changed my password so I'm out of the loop, but the game is still on so don't click on the link if you get the message from someone else. So, if you are curious and click on the link, people will be saying bad things about you.
Let's make our online presence a good one by warning each other so we do not fall into the traps that are being developed as I write this. Let your friends know about this hacker so that we can have a safe online exchange.
