What I am doing here

I am exploring Moodle as an e-learning tool for teaching German as a foreign language to Japanese.

Here's my profile on moodle.org.

Semantic HMTL

• Frank Ralf/Moodle HTML

JavaScript

• http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=106312
• http://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-14542 (http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=95743)

• I've started a little series on different aspects of JavaScript and Moodle:
  1. Frank Ralf/JavaScript1
  2. Frank Ralf/JavaScript2

• Why does Moodle 2.0 keep jumping about? is suspected to be a JavaScript bug MDL-22372

Greasemonkey

I've started creating some little Greasemonkey user scripts:

• Enhancing Tracker Issue Links
• TODO: coloring links to non-existing Moodle Doc pages red in the forums like on Moodle Docs: Non existing page

Moodle forms

• Frank Ralf/Moodle forms1

XML related stuff

• I am working on XML FAQ and Import and export FAQ
• At the moment I am trying to create a XML Schma for Moodle XML for validation purposes

• Also on my todo list:
  • creating XSLT stylesheet for converting Moodle XML to and from different (human readable) formats
  • creating macros for OpenOffice for offline quiz creation
• XML Filters in OOo
• Expand the editing capabilities of OpenOffice with XSLT
• Importing into Moodle on manual converting Excel to XML

I will start to collect some of my findings at Frank Ralf/Moodle XML1.

• Interesting discussion on Are there any standards for learning interaction data in XML? - also I'm not quite sure where this is heading...

Drupal integration

• I am also interested in integrating Moodle and Drupal, the open source CMS
  • My Drupal profile: http://drupal.org/user/216048
  • Drupal in Education User Group: http://groups.drupal.org/drupal-education
  • The ongoing discussion about Drupal and Moodle: http://groups.drupal.org/node/13600

• There's an interesting discussion in the Moodle Language Teaching course:

How can Moodle be more of a social networking site?

http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=83963&mode=3

I posted some more links regarding Drupal in education over there.

Learning Moodle programming

• I am taking part in the Introduction to Moodle Programming course (http://dev.moodle.org)

FirePHP Block

• I started work on a Moodle plugin for FirePHP.
• Now lives on https://github.com/nakohdo/moodle-block_firephp

Glossary List Block

Inspired by Using Keywords Glossary feature for language "correction" by Joseph Rézeau I started dabbling in creating a block which shows all glossaries of the currently logged in user across all his/her courses. I use Frank Ralf/Glossary list for scribbling some ideas.

• This module cannot be added to this course yet! (No file found at: ../mod/game/mod.html).
• See tracker issue MDL-25155

Auto-link Hijacker

• A filter which hijacks glossary auto-links and redirects them to a URL of you choice.
• http://moodle.org/mod/data/view.php?d=13&rid=4906&filter=1
• https://github.com/nakohdo/moodle-filter_autolinkhijacker

Theming related stuff

• I am following the discussions on the Use of JavaScript in Moodle and The Future of Moodle Templates?

Miscellaneous

• I have created some pages in the Moodle documentation: Javascript FAQ, CSS FAQ, PHP FAQ, Usability FAQ, Database FAQ, Development:Firebug

• I am watching the following issue in Moodle tracker:

Day names, month names and am/pm appear garbled in Chinese and Japanese on Windows servers
