I would just like to develop the very good points that WhoDo made, if I may...

There is indeed a world of difference between the relatively straightforward task of creating a Moodle course and the much more demanding and protracted process of creating a good Moodle course.

What kind of courses can be run with Moodle? Would this be useful for any of the learning activities at the cybercafe? We had a mini-breakthrough last night with the internet connection sharing so we may be having ourselves a network server after all. We are using it for blended learning - this is ...

@ Whodo....

For the uninitiated, you will need to have Xampp running to access the Moodle environment via your web browser

By which you mean have XAMPP installed and running on the server, not the client, right? Unless the server is also the client, of course.

Cool! I will have a crack this weekend! Thanks guys!

@ Ecomoney: Hi Robert, what you doing up at almost 4 AM? Late night or early morning? The possibilities of Moodle + Puppy are indeed most interesting. And it was great to stumble across another Moodle enthusiast too. And thanks for popping by at DEOSS. Tell me, is Puppy + LAMPP with fixed IP availab...

@ WhoDo,

Perhaps we should chat by PM and give poor old Ecomoney back his thread!
Seems we may have some common ground here? What say you?

Best wishes, Garf

@ WhoDo: Nice! Very nice indeed! Love the custom template. Yours per chance?

@ Ecomoney: Sorry mate, we seem to have hogged your thread!

Hi WhoDo, Yes I am also a big fan. Indeed I'd class Dougiamas as a genius and Moodle is a truly inspired idea. You guys have every reason to feel very proud of him and his software... http://www.deoss.org/moodle/course/view.php?id=7 Interestingly, The Open University has just adopted Moodle as its V...

Seems this thread just runs & runs. :D And quite right too! Interestingly, the story we ran on Ecomoney's cybercafé project has attracted more hits that most of our other stuff all put together! But I am really intrigued by the idea of using Puppy c/w LAMPP. We've been playing with cheapo web s...

Ecomoney -- what you've achieved is wonderful and deserves prolonged applause (appaws?). That you can be bothered to put so much into a community project simply for the benefit of others is uplifting and inspiring.

Agreed, paulh177, Ecomoney is most definitely one of the good guys.

Mr. G.

I had the privilege of visiting Ecomoney's cybercafé project 2007-01-05. What a fantastic day - apart from getting lost in Scunthorpe town centre, which wasn't much fun! :shock: Seriously, Ecomoney's cybercafé project is amazing achievement and one that reflects well both on him and on all the devel...

Wow! Seems you understand exactly what we are talking about. @ Those abroad: I think many here in the UK believe in the NHS as a concept. Some, like Ecomoney & staff even give up their own time and effort or donate cash to support their local hospitals. But we weep at the wastage, particularly o...

I just joined this forum mainly to say a big "Well Done" to Ecomoney for the cybercafé project. One of my main clients is a Postgraduate "Deanery" - part of Britain's National Health Service. I am sickened by the sheer waste I see around me - perfectly good kit being slung in ski...
