Keynote: Bag it and Tag it - Julian Ridden ‘The Moodle-man’, moodle.org

Julian's presented lots of practical examples

1. Database tool e.g.,
   1. Study notes database: For students to contribute study notes (in order to access the next part of the course) - can then use search tool esp. advanced search
   2. Book review database
   3. Lost property database
   4. GIS database - location and links through to Google Maps
   5. Weblinks database
2. Glossary
   1. Usually text-based, but can also include audio (e.g., pronunciation) or video (students can upload)
   2. Can be used for autolinks
   3. Can get RSS feed from glossay
   4. "UC uses glossary & random glossary block for announcements and system messages"
   5. The (older) glossary module is actually just a special case of the database module and totally redundant.
3. Podcasting
   1. Can use forums (they are podcast enabled)
   2. POD = personal on demand
   3. Create forum - just RSS feed with audio
