Pre-Xmas Job Scramble

been a while since I got round to writing much into this - should be a daily thing but somehow end of the day and I wanna log off not live on line...

Big milestones have been achieved, just the detail to work out on them and the devil truly does lurk in the details. The flyers need a lot of work - they're not bad in print but not that great either, lots of feedback to give and fingers x'd they'll be great once done.

However settling on the VLE has been the biggest milestone. Without doubt biggest professional decision I've had to make ever, and a tough call. Am confident externally hosted moodle to be brought in house in the future is the right way but also have realisation of the political sensitivities and football-like nature this decision could have... After gloscat experience am very keen to stay onside with people and need to watch that i keep control of my attitude towards the clunky interface and ultra-tight back end connection LUVLE has, it IS a good system but it looks and feels old, and is complex to use due to its tight integration with LUSI. The advantages and disadvantages of each solution are double-edged swords cutting both favourably and unfavourably depending on your point of view and concerns, it will be interesting to see how things develop over the next few months and years with these two systems here.
