Internet Lesson 6










I liked the open forums on the internet better then Moodle becuase it allows you to choose what topics you are interested in hearing about. The only thing that I did not like is joining groups that are not moderated because then you get a lot of junk mail. Groups that require you to join them are better for topics that are always moving and changing, that way you know that the stuff you are getting is topical. I belong to a book group that uses this approach and it works very well. I like that you can always see the main topic in the discussion and that is what you are in essence responding too- not someone elses comments. The Moodle site is good for classes but it can get confusing if someone posts to the wrong question or replies to someone else's reply- the tree can get very messy that way.
