Hi Jenny
Still blushing after reading your comment on 'Human' and your blog entry referring to our Moodle & PL efforts, thank you. A blogging chalkie gets a big grin when someone like you notices their work :-D
Yes, I'd be very keen to participate in the CTL Tankette. Look forward to bouncing ideas off kindred souls and sharpening & shaping the message for the powers-that-be.
Regards

Hi Jenny - please feel free to use anything that you might find of interest. I have lots of photos and some audio from the students and thier project manager - all very positive about their SL experience. We are now looking at using a SLoodle - access to a moodle from SL without having to leave SL - it is very exciting. Also we are looking at the break out room facility called Decka's Decks on Terra Incognita in SL run by Decka Mah (SL name). My work number is 82078382 and my mobile is 0412910517.

Jenny - thank you for the information you left on my whiteboard. I am sorry I am not checking it as often as I should. I would be interested to see what they have found. We have been using SL and it has been really successful for what we needed. You can see how our project has unfolded by reading the blog that I have made on the ME site - I haven't had a blog before so I hope it is what it is supposed to be.
