Keep Calm and Moodle 2.4 On
Adelphi Moodle system will be updated to Moodle 2.4 during Memorial Day weekend and Moodle will be unavailable from 5/24 to 5/26. The upgrade will make Moodle a more robust teaching and learning platform. Enhancements include drag-and-drop uploading of files, a rubric-generator, marking guides, and workshop activities for peer review and collaboration.
TOOL OF THE WEEK
PowerPoint Voiceover Narration: An Easy Way to Record Your Lectures
Microsoft PowerPoint can provide a familiar and easy tool for faculty to capture and share their lectures with students. Narrated PowerPoints can be uploaded to Moodle in the event of an emergency or campus closing or for students to view in advance of a related class discussion or activity. This video tutorial and a quick guide (in PDF) will walk you through adding narration to a PowerPoint lecture or presentation.
