HOOK UP! MOODLE has its first students as of 11/05/2009
.The first CE movers for 2009-10 to join the HOOK UP! Moodle are students going to countries where German, Spanish, Finnish, Italian and Russian is spoken. In all 33 students were enrolled today and will start their online language course in the coming days. All courses are at A1 level and will last between 2 to 3 months requiring some 2-3 hours of study per week.
2nd Coordination meeting held d in Greifswald, Germany on 3-4 April 2009
At the joint meeting with the CE Coordinators of the member universities, the FLTEX coordinated progress in the development of the Hook up! language modules, received information and training on web tools for the development and implementation of the language modules and set to define more specifically the function and profile of different actors, their recruitment and their training requirements. They agreed to share resources which will be stored in the Hook up! Moodle, to recruit support institutionally for the various parts of the project and to organize a meeting of the various Hook up! contributors at the end of June or early September to further course content development knowledge and evaluate the first online courses to be implemented from May 2009.
Two roles are defined for developing the LMs (language modules) :
i) leader or co-leader of the LM for the language of the university
ii) contributor to one or more LM for languages taught at the university in relation with the outgoing CE movers
It is important that a university defines BOTH roles from the start.
Of the 134 days budgeted for this work (some 6 months working full time 20 days per month) , normally half would go to the 1st role and a quarter to the second role. Please bear in mind that the calendar of this work is quite unequal. From now until March, it will be intensive but it will slow down and then increase over the summer. It would be very useful if people commented on the number of hours they think it is required to develop an A1 level module.
