Hi everyone.

On a slightly older thread, one of the people experimenting with Moodle 
on literacytent wrote to ask about how to develop a course on the 
system.  Upon investigating this question, I realized that NOBODY had 
the proper privileges for this - a dozen or so of you signed up to 
explore the system, but probably didn't get very far as a result.

I have given everybody who has already created an account course 
creation privileges.  If you were checking out the system before and 
got stuck, take another look if you're interested: you should now be 
able to create courses and evaluate that part of the system.  If anyone 
else wants to join and investigate this, go ahead and create an 
account, and then email me with your username and I'll give you 
course-creation privileges so you can test it too.

All feedback will help me evaluate whether it's a service I should 
offer in a more-than-experimental fashion.  I'm keeping the site 
password-protected during this phase, just as a general precaution 
against the Big Bad World, but that will of course change if I decide 
to make it "live".

URL:  http://moodle.literacytent.org
username and password for accessing the site: ltmoodle / ltmoodle
then you'll use your own username and password within moodle to move 
around.  Hope that isn't too confusing.

I'll be interested in any and all comments, good and bad.  I didn't 
write Moodle, so don't worry about sparing my feelings. :)

Cheers,

Steve
