PLEASE NOTE: This site has been upgraded and is now part of e-Skills, however while it has altered in appearance due to the change in branding, all functionality has remained the same. Some courses have been moved to more suitable categories - please contact the e-Skills Coordinator for further information on these moves.
Welcome to the e-Skills Moodle site
This site has been created to provide a place for VET practitioners to experiment with the use of Moodle, thereby supporting the uptake of e-learning by South Australian VET practitioners including private training providers, enterprise-located trainers, VET in schools, ACE, community and not-for profit organisations.
How to Get Your Own Moodle Classroom
VET practitioners from private RTOs and other organisations:
To obtain a free Moodle classroom, first register on this site and then click the link 'Moodle Classroom Request Form'. Both links are top left of this page. All VET practitioners are encouraged to use this site for trialling the use of a Learning Management System, and for experimenting with the use of this Moodle environment and its associated tools. For further information contact us at admin@e-skills.com.au TAFESA staff wishing to set up a Moodle classroom can apply for a free TAFESA Moodle classroom at http://moodle.tafesa.edu.au/
It is presumed that users of this site are self sufficient in using Moodle. For assistance see 'Support' in the main menu (top left) If your site experiences any technical issues please contact e-Skills at admin@e-skills.com.au
Upcoming Training Courses in Moodle
If you require assistance with using Moodle, e-Skills conducts a range of training courses including Moodle workshops. A list of current courses can be found at www.e-skills.com.au and a calendar on the site lists future courses. To enrol in any of these courses phone 8226 4345 or for more information about the course content go the the e-Skills website or email the e-Skills Coordinator at coordinator@e-skills.com.au
e-Skills e-Portfolio Application
Mahara (an open source e-portfolio application) is available as an externally linked application to this site. If you would like to be linked to this application, contact e-Skills at admin@e-skills.com.au
If you do not wish for or require a login to the e-Skills Moodle service, you can access the e-Portfolio directly at: http://mahara.e-skills.com.au/ where you can register directly.
For further information on Mahara visit www.mahara.org
Backing up your classrooms
While this site is regularly backed up, you should also backup your own course regularly. It is good practice to backup once you have set up your course, and also when you complete a course, or get ready to enrol a new group of students.
You can backup the course within its own resource area, automatically creating a zip file which can be used to restore a course if required. You should also take a copy of your backup and store this on your own hard disk or shared drive as an archive of your own activity.
