More on Covid-19

Times are changing rapidly! I’ve started a new set of lab resources, and I’ve set up Moodle, but I’ll probably dispense with a wiki for now as there’s only 24 hours in each day!!!

For my Moodle, I’m trying to set up some resources to allow my instructors in taekwondo and maybe also in boxing to set up some online classes for their students. While it’s good to link to all the online streamed classes of big organisations, or to provide a set of self-learning videos, I’m looking to set up something that is specific to the students they already have, to present interactive classes and to help parents keep their kids involved.

I’m hoping that some of the material will just be open resources for anyone to use, but then some more specialised classes for their own people with a way of maintaining an income stream.

And I’ve also started playing with a great open-source video-conferencing tool BigBlueButton for people who don’t have access to university-level resources that we can easily get used to. There is a free version that allows you to do everything except save recordings, and then there are various hosting sites that allow for a bit more at a cost. But always good to try before you buy
