To Moodle or not to Moodle, that is the question. I have come to a crossroads with a project that I would like to implement. I am currently in the process of developing a series of e-Learning courses that will be part of a blended management training program, which I may sell.
Here is where it get’s interesting, I have used Moodle in the past, and Moodle is easy to start getting things up and running, just needs to be used. So here’s the decision, should I simply upload these courses using Captivate like I usually do, or do I get crazy and try to implement these new courses on Moodle.
I am struggling with the decision of whether I want to make the leap to Moodle because I can’t remember how much space I have on my server to be honest. Only two of the courses has a quiz. I have a bit of experience with LMS’s as you all know, and you all know the biggest benefit is tracking the results of quizzes etc. Is that a benefit to me if I only have two quizzes? But then again, there are probably a lot of features that will help with logistical tasks.

I love the ability where I can plan, prioritise, design, develop and deliver blended learning solutions for a variety of markets. I love to consult and advise about the best use of digital learning and improve design standards in line with evolving ways of working. I also enjoy to keep up to date with, understand and regularly recommend emerging technologies and practice to improve individuals, teams and organisational capabilities.
With over 12 years digital learning experience and demonstrated experience in both instructional design and eLearning development, I have also a lot of experience conducting training needs analysis including how to leverage principles such as design thinking and root cause analysis to understand and address performance gaps. I also have led many facilitation workshops and even presented at iDesignX and Game Developers Conferences both here in Australia, Wales and in the United States.
I bring loads of coding experience in Java, ASM, C++, HTML, JavaScript, SCORM and xAPI, as well as proven capability using Adobe Captivate, Trivantis Lectora and Articulate Storyline 360 Studio authoring programs. Of course, Adobe Creative Cloud is also part of my toolbox which I also use daily. Being taught traditional and advanced 3D animation techniques, I love hand drawing and polymer clay sculpture, but can also use the Blender, 3D Studio Max, Maya and Softimage applications.
With strong multimedia, training and programming backgrounds, I understand modern learner behaviour including micro and social learning, I am very familiar with most LMSes and app-based (XCode and Android Studio), adult learning models and e-solutions.
I also possess the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously, whilst being pro-active in delivering work independently with minimal supervision, but enjoy working in teams.
I've been told I am a resilient, relationship focused guy which can manage and navigate conflicting views and stakeholders/subject matter experts.
