Lifelong Learning

I’m now reading the book Using Moodle written by Jason Cole and Helen Foster. I am recommended to read this book becasue i’ve been assigned a task to set up a moodel course by David, my instructor of the eLearning Strategies and Management Module.

This is a book very useful for educators to learn how to use moodle. It offers step-by-step how-to instructions as well as suggestions, case studies and best practices for using moodel more effectively which i find most useful. Here is the download link for you if you’re now using moodle or intend to use it for your students.
