Educators use the Moodle web application to create effective online learning sites. Creating such learning environments that suit Design and Technology subjects requires understanding and implementation of both basic and advanced Moodle features.
This book takes a detailed look at Moodle features with examples of how to fully support the Design and Technology curricula using Moodle. It will guide you to incorporate specific modules and blocks to enhance learning as well as allow detailed tracking of performance by using formative and summative assessment tools with ease.
We start with setting up a very basic Moodle course for Design and Technology, and then set up some basic resources and some interactive material. You will customize your own courses and create a course for each of the key areas of the DT subjects and add material to them. We will create some basic reporting and assessment tools and enhance the look of the course. We will use Moodle's detailed and sophisticated gradebook to assess your student s ' learning progress in activities from an assignment to an offline activity. Then we will support students in designing a product or trying a new recipe in food technology in market research to find out exactly what the public wants in relation to their product, by designing a questionnaire. We will allow product design or resistant material students use the HTML features of the questionnaire module to incorporate images into the questions to make it clearer to respondents what it is they are trying to make and sell.
We will allow students in construction to gather and organize their research material in a great deal of detail and also allow them to better understand their target market and the materials used in their construction through detailed questioning. We will allow food technology students to discuss and receive constructive feedback on food products that contribute to health issues that will enable them to make informed decisions and therefore better quality products. Then we explore several components within Moodle's core functionality and some third-party sources to display the progress of the student's work and development. We then have an overview of the different design portfolios available. Finally we look at additional ways to enhance the teaching and learning of D & T with Moodle using third-party modules and add-ons.
What You Will Learn
• Help your students to set up and organize their own database for Materials research or a specific database for food technology using the standard database module in Moodle • Display the progress of your students' work and development with several Moodle components such as forums, blogs, galleries, wikis, and some third-party sources • Allow students to store, organize, and share their work with each other by using Moodle Portfolios such as Exabis, MyStuff, and Mahara • Design and create glossaries and add entries specifically for design and technology • Allow students to map out their ideas using a basic interface to link and label items on the screen using an add-on called Mindmap • Assess your students' progress by designing quizzes that are conveniently linked to the students' gradebook • Design questionnaires and analyze their results and add feedback module and customize them to retain anonymity • Give your students an opportunity to use Moodle to present their designs and ideas to a huge audience and gain invaluable feedback by using an interactive tool—DimDim • Create a library of resources for students to interact with using applications such as myUdutu and add-ons such as Noodle • Create a detailed framework with Moodle tools that allow you to chart students progress and offer them constructive feedback through reflective practice and achievable targets • Create an electronic portfolio for Product design students that they can use to gather and organize their electronic materials
