Notes
Please do add notes here regarding any of the topics above. Anything useful here is a bonus.
- The discussion around the VLE should include thoughts on user testing prior to going public with the software (SB)
- I raised the issue of transclusion into Moodle; and it has now been pointed out to me that in principle this does exist just as in MediaWiki syntax: see http://docs.moodle.org/24/en/MoodleDocs:Transclusion. Caveat: it would be rash to assume what was true in 2008 works now (not everything was upwardly compatible from Moodle 1.9 to Moodle 2.0). But this gives us a new tack to try, and affects the working finances. (CRM)
