COSELLO Conference going swimmingly!
Right now I’m posting this from the COSELLO conference, which is the final conference for the COVCELL project (http://www.covcell.org). Here we had a demonstration of all the tools we developed, and we invite the TEL, Open Source, and Moodle communities to use and extend our work which is all available for free on http://www.covcell.org (under the tools section).
On moodle.org there is a special COVCELL section under the Language Teaching course, http://moodle.org/mod/forum/view.php?id=5368 (this is the URL to the project discussion forum under moodle.org!).
Since some of our modules currently require some expertise to set up (server side setup required) to play around with, we invite people to register on our Moodle “playpen” server, http://lms2.cms.hu-berlin.de/covcell where the latest stable versions of all our modules are installed. Teachers interested in trying out Moodle and our tools together may be in contact with me or Daniel Kuenstner at Humboldt University to get their own course set up on the playpen, for more realistic testing.
The demonstrations this morning went well, and I think our work has been well received, and I look forward to continuing development on some of the modules as required in the future, and I hope they reach considerable maturity in the next year or so, and start solving problems for more people!
