"This summer I'm doing a Moodle hishtalmut online with Eduardo Lina.
I'm learning a lot about the Moodle platform and how to use it, and would like to share what I have done so far with my fellow English teachers.
Moodle has a lot of great tools, it takes a little try and error to get things right, and there are endless possibilities when we combine it with other tools like Google, Quizlet, etc.
I strongly recommend other teachers to begin to use Moodle!"

If we succeed, my colleagues deserve the credit
The summer 2019 “Moodle for Blended Learning: Hands-on Workshop” is on.
This is a “Teachers for Teachers” initiative at its best: Teachers of English are learning and exploring together the techno-pedagogical possibilities inherent in the Education Ministry’s Moodle learning environment. (...) The National Chief inspector of English Language Education at the Ministry supports the initiative. “From my point of view, this is a grass-roots project that is relevant for English teachers nationwide and the registration reflects this. I’m sure this is a beginning, or perhaps a continuation, of a learning journey and a model of cooperation between the technology department at the Ministry and the English inspectorate”... Read more

A Glimpse into the work of teacher participants in the Moodle workshop
Hi! Colleagues who are participating in the Moodle Workshop have allowed me to share a video that offers a glimpse into some of the work that some of these colleagues have done so far
Here is a bit of background information:
(1) There are 7 modules and this video records what was done when module 4 was available.
(2) 100 teachers registered in less than 3 days, 86 started the course, and some participants have left for a number of reasons.
(3) Since this is an online workshop, participants have to meet requirements and due dates in order to complete their work on every module of the workshop. (
4) The workshop caters to the needs of teachers who use ANY Moodle Platform (MOE MOODLE, MOODLE MASHOV, ETC)
(5) While the workshop is run on one Moodle Platform, participants work on a Practice Area. There are four Practice Areas with roughly 20 participants having editing rights, which means they add Moodle Resources and Moodle Activities to create their Units for Blended Learning. Participants are careful not to"invade" somebody else's territory (You can see this in the video).
(6) Most participants document their work with text and screen captures by means of a Word File, whereas some do so on video. I encourage participants to share their work on video here.
(7) Participants submit work on every single unit (that is a requirement).
(8) The attached images let you know how much 51 participants reported they"knew" about Moodle when they started the workshop.
(9) KUDOS to the colleagues who are actively taking part in the Workshop!
(10) Will there be another workshop? I do not know. I guess it might take teachers of English letting the Ministry of Education know that having such a workshop is relevant and not a waste of time, money, etc.
