Moodle is a magnificent free product and has the potential to enable schools and teachers to build wonderfully unique interactive online learning courses in which learner interaction can be tracked, measured and responded to. Despite this the vast majority of Moodle courses I see are a long list of Word and PDF documents with at best a few forums that enable a minimum of human social interaction. Via Nik Peachey

Nik gives some very useful insights and some practical ideas for developing online materials. He has a focus on Moodle, but the ideas relate to any online learning platform.

Nik makes some great points about Moodle - or really putting any content online - there has to be instructional design training, online teaching training or blended teaching training and how to select content for online delivery. technical training alone is not enough.

Problems and possibilities of Moodle (and other similar platforms) outlined by Nik Peachey:
* Why Moodle courses often suck? Not so intuitive platform to work with, lack of teacher training and skills to create online learning material (I agree with these points), excess security issues.
* What to do to improve.
* Comment about ready-made courses. There are various problems, for example these often contain little student-teacher or peer interaction. I agree that the ready-made digital material, in my experience, is not very personalisable (and therefore difficult to teach in an inspired way).
* How to develop your Moodle skills? The post gives 9 links to practical video tutorials (how to create a quiz, add a youtube, etc.). There are also free Moodle platforms to practice.
