Is Moodle a “trojan horse”

that we can use to introduce K-12

and adult learners to new

technologies in a “safe, controlled

learning environment?”

"This introductory course has greatly influenced how I feel about online learning. Although I was very nervous at first it has clearly given me the self confindence to take on a course of this nature.

In addition this course has given me the opportunity to reflect on my own experiences and evaluate those skills I already had.

I encourage anyone who is skeptical about an online course to embrace it with open arms and reap the benefits it has to offer."

"I know that I am an independent learner, but I also know that I am one

to respond positively through active

conversation with others. I felt that the only way to do that was in a traditional classroom; now I understand that I

can have that active conversation through others' comments and

postings."

Often, professional development in

schools is ONE WAY.

The purpose isn't to help people learn, it's

to push a certain agenda or instructional

program...a way of standardizing teaching and learning, making it

idiot-proof.
