Moodle Hack/Doc Fest V will be held January 5-7, 2010 at Lafayette College in Easton, Pa. The event will feature programmers and instructional technologists coming together to improve Moodle. We expect to continue work on CLAMP’s Moodle: Liberal Arts Edition project, fix outstanding Moodle bugs, and craft new training materials. We also hope to test drive Moodle 2.0, which is scheduled for a beta release at the end of 2009.
With this Hack/Doc, CLAMP returns to its “pay your own way” funding model. Lafayette will be providing breakfast, lunch and snacks for attendees, but they will need to pay for their own transportation, lodging, and dinner. In addition to the conventional Hack/Doc Fest, we’re planning on coordinating a virtual component to Hack/Doc Fest that will allow people to participate from their own campuses.
Visit the event home page for more information and to register.
With about two weeks to go until Hack/Doc Fest, we have 23 people registered for Hack/Doc Fest – 17 will be attending in person, 6 will be attending virtually. Of these, we have 11 hackers and 12 dockers.
15 colleges are participating in the event: Colby College, Colgate University, Drew University, Hampshire college, Kalamazoo College, Lafayette College, Luther College, Millsaps College, Oakland University, Reed College, Smith College, SUNY Delhi, Vassar College, Wesleyan University, Wheaton College
