As I write fourth and fifth grade student narrative reports for the first time, I am enjoying using Moodle’s activity reports to add detail to each one. From the Participants list, I access each student’s profile page, which includes a tab for Reports. Moodle tracks every time a student views a resource or completes and online activity. I am then able to add comments like, “[student] played two games about online safety eight times!” I can also see what students are sufficiently excited by the website to visit it outside of class time. Our progressive elementary school does not have grades, so I don’t have much use for the grading and summary functions in Moodle. Go Moodle!

Hi Richard,
Our students all use OWA here as well. We find it much easier, as students only have to familiarize themselves with one interface, and OWA is accessible from home, school, or while on vacation. Exchange 2003’s OWA interface is much improved over previous versions as well.
As for the Outlook config issue…
You should be able to use the Office Custom Installation Wizard to set Outlook to work correctly for any user when they first open Outlook.

Take a look at the section "Configure Exchange settings for user profiles".
Hope that helps.
Thank you, Jason, especially for the custom installation tip. On the first issue, I wish there was a way besides training to get users to save OWA attachments to their Documents folder instead of the temporary items folder.
well, something like this can be done with messageware enhanced owa, plus, you no longer need the application if you are only viewing the file.
The last thing I want to do is to purchase an application to help support another commercial application. We’ll just stick with training, thank you very much! Actually, it will be even better to transition users to Outlook via RPC over HTTP and Entourage via webDAV.
