[01:17] <JoseeAntonioR> pleia2: hey, I've been playing with the moodle interface, not created a course yet, but may be super useful
[01:18] <JoseeAntonioR> the big problem is that registration is not open
[01:44] <pleia2> JoseeAntonioR: opening it is easy once we have some courses
[01:44] <pleia2> don't want to open it yet though, spammers and junk accounts
[01:45] <JoseeAntonioR> ok, so let me know once we should start working, I'll get the docs from help.u.c
[01:46] <pleia2> whenever :) and I figure we just link to help.u.c documents (instruct people to print or save them as needed)
[01:46] <pleia2> in this process I figure we'll be doing a lot of helpful updating to help.u.c/community too
[01:46] <JoseeAntonioR> yeah, sure
[01:47] <JoseeAntonioR> we can also have a script to get the print (text-only) version of the doc
[01:47] <JoseeAntonioR> but we'd need to figure out how images would work
[01:47] <pleia2> and if you feel overwhelmed by moodle, you're welcome to bypass it and just write classes that you release as .pdf or .odt or whatever, moodle is just an option
[01:47] <pleia2> moodle scares me :)
[01:48] <JoseeAntonioR> :P
[01:49] <JoseeAntonioR> ok, so I'll write it in .odts and then we can export it to pdfs
[01:49] <pleia2> yeah, that's what doctormo did
[01:50] <pleia2> ok, going to grab a snack and bring my laptop up to the roof (stuffy in here)
[01:50] <JoseeAntonioR> ok!
[01:59] <pleia2> much better :)
[01:59] <JoseeAntonioR> yay
[01:59] <JoseeAntonioR> it's cold over here
[02:00] <JoseeAntonioR> I still have the IRC and getting help docs I wrote in the plane in .txt files, I'll get them in .odts
[02:00] <pleia2> it's normal here (50s F)
[02:00] <pleia2> :)
[02:01] <JoseeAntonioR> about font and size, I'll use the Ubuntu font, is size 12 ok?
[02:01] <pleia2> sure
[02:02]  * pleia2 catches up on team reports she's been slacking on
[03:06] <JoseeAntonioR> pleia2: http://people.ubuntu.com/~joseeantonior/learning/IRC.pdf , can you please give it a quick look?
[03:08] <pleia2> JoseeAntonioR: I think what we want to do is link to the actual content on the wiki instead of rewriting it, and in our materials we write exercises for people to accomplish in class
[03:08] <pleia2> so like, first: go read this
[03:08] <pleia2> and "this" is a help.ubuntu.com page
[03:08] <pleia2> then: Now do these exercises
[03:08] <pleia2> we write the exercises
[03:09] <JoseeAntonioR> oh, gotcha
[03:09] <pleia2> so the exercises would be like "join #ubuntu-learning on freenode"
[03:09] <pleia2> and maybe we walk them through that specific task
[03:10] <pleia2> otherwise we really will end up rewriting everything :\
[03:10] <JoseeAntonioR> yeah, that was before uds
[03:10] <pleia2> oh, and we'll want full links to things on pdfs in case people print them out for students :)
[03:10] <pleia2> no clicky clicky on paper, I've tried
[03:11] <JoseeAntonioR> maybe we can get a link shortener?
[03:11] <JoseeAntonioR> or use one that already exists
[03:11] <pleia2> nah, I think full links are the best
[03:11] <JoseeAntonioR> ok, full links then
[03:12] <pleia2> link shorteners have a habit of going down or being unreliable
[03:14] <JoseeAntonioR> ok, so we should have some IRC basics in h.u.c/community, I'll just link there and write the exercises later
[03:15] <pleia2> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat
[03:15] <pleia2> so we can improve that, if it needs improving
[03:19] <JoseeAntonioR> some docs over there are not updated, so we may need to update them too
[03:20] <pleia2> yep
[03:20] <pleia2> better to update those than write all our own
[03:27] <JoseeAntonioR> great, then
