    Materials and Resources

    2 min read

    The DIGI-FACE online learning team have developed several resources to assist in the effective creation of innovative and creative modules. Various resources geared towards enhancing learning are also available to Participants. The team have relied on published research providing insight with regard to Learning and Teaching technologies and software. 

    This information has assisted the team when it comes to identifying what best contributes to the creation of learning interventions. These materials and resources are available here. Most are for self-use, but some of the mini-modules are facilitated via Zoom sessions for extra benefit (see prospectus).

    Rise is an example of a resource for Module Creators. Articulate Rise is a modern, dynamic eLearning authoring tool that allows designers to create responsive modules suitable for use on any device. Using a web-based module builder, Rise allows for the creation of beautiful online modules with the few clicks of a button. 

    The team has developed several support resources in Rise. Notable examples include information on: building a module in Moodle, assignments; quiz activity; using Teams for teaching; using Zoom for teaching; using a module shell; feedback activity; and PowerPoint recording. 

    Participant Resources cover subjects like: how to log in and enrol, finding my module, navigation, uploading files, quizzes, etc. 

    Templates are available for module design and outlines; activity design; and feedback surveys. 

    Other Resources include, among others, a Moodle Tool Guide for teachers and an Online Quality Review checklist. The ‘Exploring the Online Learning Environment’ and ‘Technology Enhanced Teaching and Learning’ modules are also available when they are open for self-study (in other words, when not being offered via blended learning). 

    Other Software One can use Freepik (free stock images and illustrations) and Pexels (free stock images and videos) when creating a Moodle module. These sources are free. Canva and Doodly are notable examples of useful software packages. Doodly is a whiteboard animation tool and Canva can be used for the creation of artwork and learning objects. While Canva offers a Free account as well as a Pro account (paid for), Doodly does not offer a free option.
