Editing the E-Toolkit
Tried out editing content in the E-Toolkit Wiki and adding content. It was extremely easy!
- Edited the section under Examples of Synchronous Communication Tools
- Moodle’s built-in Chat Tool
- Moodle Chat Module: http://docs.moodle.org/en/Chats
- Chat module includes documentation on: Adding/editing a chat, Chat permissions, Viewing a chat, Chat sessions, Chat reports, Chat FA
- Moodle’s built-in Chat Tool
- Added content to the Practice for Moodle Users section:
- Moodle & Audio Chat & A/V Conferencing
Moodle itself does not yet include an audio chat solution, due to the large server requirements to implement a standalone solution.
However, there is a choice of third party modules that you can install into your Moodle to achieve this:- OpenMeetings – FREE full audio/video conferencing http://code.google.com/p/openmeetings/
- Dimdim – FREE full audio/video conferencing http://moodle.org/mod/data/view.php?d=13&rid=932
- Elluminate Live – full audio/video conferencing http://moodle.org/mod/data/view.php?d=13&rid=557
- Wimba – full audio/video conferencing http://www.wimba.com/products/moodle_integration/
- Marratech – Emeeting Module – full audio/video conferencing http://docs.moodle.org/en/Emeeting_module
- Nanogong – FREE, for recorded audio http://gong.ust.hk/nanogong/moodle.html
- Moodle & Audio Chat & A/V Conferencing
Now I’m going to test these Audio Chat and Audio/Video conferencing tools…and then once I’ve decided on one, I’ll try integrating it into the Moodle course that is in development.
