CIO Recommendations

Here are our recommendations written in our Wiki

1. While Facebook does provide a social forum that could be used for professional development, we believe that Moodle provides the best forum for professional development at this stage. Moodle provides an effective way to manage a course it;
• allows access to world-wide information with management control.
• can build in almost any kind of web content into the course, this includes video, podcasts and audio
• has multipage lessons
• is able to link webpages, text documents, glossaries
• provides opportunity for real time chat and video conferencing
• has the ability to make quizzes with built-in solutions.
• has a wiki

Moodle has developed a reputation as a risk free, easy to use way of managing a course.

2. We also recommend the use of Twitter be adopted by the company as an adjunct to Moodle. It can be used to give employees directions or URLs that will provide additional PD as required.
