  7. Overview • Information Literacy (IL) Skills are essential to underpin independent learning and training, and develop high quality evidence based healthcare delivery, in the modern knowledge economy. • This project aims to promote a coordinated cross-organisational approach to IL training, by ensuring all NHS staff in North East NHS has access to appropriate blended resources, that are delivered locally and flexibly, and with the long term support needed to deliver these skills.

  8. Project Aims • The development of a VLE (Moodle) to host the IL toolkit of online and blended training material. • Mapping of learning resources to KSF dimensions (IK dimensions) to assist staff in constructing their personal development plans. • Improvement in web and technical development skills of library and information staff to assist in the development of the toolkit resources. • The development of a blended patch-wide approach to fully support users as they develop their IL skills. • To develop partnerships with all relevant trainers and educationalists to promote and market the use of the VLE and to investigate the desirability of including other learning resources to support learners in developing other generic skill sets (including IT skills, study skills, numeracy, literacy, communication and management).

  9. Moodle • Modular Object-Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment • Moodle is an Open Source Course Management System (CMS), also known as a Learning Management System (LMS) or a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE). • It has become very popular among educators around the world as a tool for creating online dynamic web sites for their students. • It has a significant user base with 49,256 registered sites with 28,177,443 users in 2,571,855 courses (as of February, 2009). • Moodle has many features expected from an e-learning platform, plus some original innovations (for example its filtering system), it is modular in construction and can readily be extended by creating plugins for specific new functionality. • www.moodle.org Gayle Guthrie, Information Literacy Project Officer Hear and see your contacts with Office Communicator
