The Virtual Learning Platform The Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) at Copley High School is hosted by Tameside Council. It is a new resource to help pupils learn at school and from home. Parents can also access the VLE by using the username and password given to their son or daughter. The VLE enables teachers to upload files and resources onto a server located at Tameside Council offices, which can then be worked on, viewed, downloaded and printed - from home or within school, at the local library or even whilst on holiday when visiting an internet cafe! Many links to appropriate websites will also be found listed under each curriculum departmental area. Access to the internet in school is also available before and after school in the Learning Resource Centre (LRC). Click on the image below to visit the Virtual Learning Environment. The files types can be Microsoft Office files such as Word or Excel - images, movie files and sound clips - many of the files will be converted into Acrobat Reader files to speed up download times. All files have been checked for viruses and are safe to download to your home computer. What is moodle?Moodle is an open source virtual learning environment (VLE) software program, that you can you use to create web-based resources and courses. Moodle grew out of a PhD research project by Martin Dougiamas. The word Moodle was originally an acronym for Modular Object Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment. It's also a verb that describes the process of lazily meandering through something, doing things as it occurs to you to do them, an enjoyable tinkering that often leads to insight and creativity. Happy moodling! The School VLE can be accessed from a link directly at the end of the homepage of the school website or directly at this address simply by clicking on the link below - remember to bookmark the link for future visits: http://vle.copley.tameside.sch.uk Click the image above to visit SAM Learning - The online learning revision site that all pupils at Copley High have access to. |
