		<description><![CDATA[Nice to see an education-specific distribution of Drupal released. DrupalEd EdtechTalk has a thorough Screencast Tour of it here, and one can also create an account at the demonstration site here. From what I&#8217;ve seen, this system looks very clean and easy enough for end-users (i.e. busy teachers and students). Not sure about ease of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Got a little worried when I was asked to put up a polling system in Moodle to allow teachers and students to &#8220;vote&#8221; for their favourite photo. I knew right away that the correct activity to use would be Choice but&#8230; Choice only had blanks for 10 options! There didn&#8217;t seem to be an &#8220;insert [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been dabbling with wikis for a while and so far I&#8217;ve found them to be useful for collaborative writing tasks. For instance, I&#8217;ve edited a document with a group of colleagues and I&#8217;ve also had students build up a knowledge base on characterisation using Wiki. The ability to share and edit text online, without [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the past week, there have been a lot of headlines in the papers about, to put it simply, people getting punished for what they blog. More significantly, many of these are students who wrote slanderous things about their fellow students and even teachers. The Straits Times&#8217; Podcast has a special feature this week on [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[After all that planning, my school department&#8217;s Drupal-based web portal is finally up! Its present design is based on the SpreadFirefox theme and the only &#8220;community&#8221; part of it is the forums section. Judging from the content of some of the posts though, it looks like many are quickly reverting to SMS-style &#8220;language&#8221;. Urgh! Now, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Haven&#8217;t posted about blogging for a while, so here&#8217;s a huge one. Despite a lot of talk about blogging in the classroom by many edublog-type sites, it is clear that the idea of actually assessing blogwork for assignments is still a new and evolving one. I personally haven&#8217;t really tried to go beyond looking at [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s amazing just how far Moodle, an open source Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) project, has come. Several polytechnics in Australia have embarked on the largest deployment of Moodle to date. Four universities are likely to migrate to Moodle (probably from WebCT or Blackboard?) by July, and 10 secondary schools are already using it.&#160; While it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Drupal&#8217;s installation process wasn&#8217;t as newbie-friendly as Mambo&#8217;s &#8211; you&#8217;d have to manually edit a configuration file, but once the install wizard got started, it was otherwise straightforward to complete. Immediately upon a successful install however, I was getting some strange messages about QUERY LOCK TABLES write. The Drupal Handbook suggests that I should ask [...]]]></description>

This came as a stroke of good luck for me as I would not have liked to go through the hassle of upgrading from 4.5.x to the current 4.6 etc after building a siyr. As I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When I checked out the leading CMS packages on OpensourceCMS a few months ago, I settled on Mambo for my own website because of its active user/developer community, and most importantly, because it&#8217;s also incredibly simple to use. Eventually I even recommended Mambo as a CMS for my school, and it now powers my school&#8217;s [...]]]></description>
