Hi Jane,

We are doing it again. At this point we are finalizing dates and content for this year's boot camp. We are looking at one for new/beginner users like last year and one for advanced users. I will post up more information as soon as we finalize things. I am also working on doing boot camps in a variety of subjects in a number of places both here in the US and in Australia.

Thanks Randy.
I'm providing content for a professional development course housed in moodle. It's very bare bones and I'm no expert but I know moodle is extensible. Can you point me to a handful of high functioning moodle sites?

Unfortunately, most of the high functioning Moodle sites that I know are all password protected. If you want to see some example courses that a few people have designed you can download them at http://moodlecommons.org

Hi there -another place to look for example courses (but not sites, I'm afraid) is if you go to moodle.org and go to their Cool Course competition - it has just closed but has 50 Moodle courses at all different levels which will eventually find their way to the Moodle course sharing area for people to download. I agree it's difficult to see real sites as you can't get into them because of the pasword.
