UCL Arena Digital – new online course starts 2 March
By Clive Young, on 11 February 2015
Improve your Moodle skills and enhance your online/blended teaching by taking part in UCL Arena Digital.
UCL Arena Digital is a free online course for all staff at UCL.
The course is fully online and will take only 2-3 hours of your week. The course is made up of three Units. Each unit will last 2 weeks and there will be breaks in between Units. Each fortnight will end with a live online webinar where you can share your experiences with your colleagues on the course.
The course is designed so you can take all three Units, or simply pop in for the Units that especially interest you.
- Unit 1: multimedia – find out how to create and embed media and interactive tools in Moodle to enliven the online environment for your students.
- Unit 2: communication – discover ways of using tools inside and outside of Moodle you can use to communicate with students and support their collaboration with each other.
- Unit 3: assessment and feedback – explore ways of using the online environment to create new kinds of assessment and give feedback to students.
Unit 1 starts Monday 2nd March 2015 and lasts for 2 weeks.

Meet Jess, Jack, Stuart & Heather – realistic voices for free* download | UCL E-Learning Environments team blog wrote on 3 March 2015:
[…] As part of an online e-learning course I am helping to develop, I am using the TechDis Jess voice to provide audio files of the commentary, as an alternative to reading. I have had to tweak some of the text – for example, UCL needs to be written with spaces between each letter in order for Jess to pronounce each letter individually and I needed to add a hyphen to CMALT (C-MALT) for it to be pronounced correctly. But for the most part I can leave the text much as it is typed. I then run it through a free, open source software called Balabolka to produce an audio file that participants on the course can download and listen to. […]
