Forums

as part of the VLE, I included a forum which could have been used with students on the course (wondering if i could have still done it, as i thought that the uni wouldnt have liked the idea of a forum outside of moodle)
the idea of the forum was to get students to ask questions about the course and have me answer them and also have live group chat on the VLE itself. it is powered by Google Groups so the participants would be invited by their email addresses. this will then allow them to fully interact on the site

VLE information

the Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) is an area of either Ethernet or Internet (on or off campus) which deals with the reviewing of course details, university attendence forms, administration, coursework submissions etc.
for the design of mine at:

https://sites.google.com/site/bscmusictech23/

i took inspiration from what i thought would be a good design for a VLE, simple yet effective.
within the site, i have put a page with a list of the staff members, course locations, documents, modules and a forum designed for questions and answers which includes a Quizlet quiz based on music technology studio terminology.

this is a screenshot of what my VLE looks like (not in use at the placement because of usage restraints.)

VLE so far

As you can see, i have linked the home page to sub categories about the modules and course documents with a brief introduction on the home page...so far! this is due to change in the near future
