As of June 1st 2020, I will be taking part in HRDNZ's Official Moodle Educator Certificate. Ever since I heard of the program I have wanted to enroll. Well, the time has come and I am quite happy about it. I have been looking forward to learning more about Moodle.
Ten years ago I went back to university just because I wanted to learn a bit more about Information Studies, the use of Technology in Education, and the like. It was a worthwhile three-year experience. I enjoyed studying at Bar Ilan University, eventually earning my second Masters.
Even though the Official Moodle Educator Certificate program is much shorter and something different, I am sure it will have as much impact on the way I teach as taking that Masters has had.
And, of course, there is this other thing: I like to study.

LMS Pulse - Accessibility in The Israel Ministry of Education Moodle Platform
"In schools where students with special needs are integrated into the regular education classes, the sudden switch to fully online teaching and learning may have proved to be an extra heavy load for pupils with a learning disability, their parents, and their teachers.
I have been teaching English at The Six-Year Kugel High School in Holon, Israel since 1989. I remember that back in 1997, I had a very smart and outspoken pupil who had difficulty reading and writing in English..." READ MORE
