I felt a lot better about my Moodle after Thursday's class. I was able to add my banners/logos for each section and thanks to Maria, she helped me figure out how to remove the default name for each section. Who would've thought that by tapping the space bar a couple times would do the trick. Once again, thanks Maria. Making a menu for the Moodle is going to be key; I agree that the Moodle by default should have the option of rearranging the topics by date, but it does not, so having a menu will make it much easier to navigate. If it weren't for the tutorial in class on how to make a menu, there is no way I would have figured out how to create one. To be honest, I didn't even think on including one in my Moodle. As I move forward and create my syllabus and menu, I have to keep in mind the Segmenting principle, and I am hoping the syllabus will help me stay organized. As I mentioned before, this past class has me feeling less stressed about the Moodle and I can now see it coming together. I look forward to learning more tips and tricks(hacks) for the Moodle.
I feel the same way after this week Martin. I saw that Dr. Sponder had one of the menus at the top of his page, but I never even thought of adding that to my own Moodle. After the tutorial that he gave, I feel like it is almost too easy to create to not have one for our own Moodle. I also left the class feeling okay with where I am with my Moodle and where I will be going from here on out. I also feel that segmenting the information will be the most difficult because we are not used to doing it through an electronic means.
