First Meeting

March 16th, 2011  -   5:30pm at 1033 King St. West

I had first meeting with Judi Snively, the coordinator from St. Christopher House at 5:30pm in 1033 King St. West. Surprisingly, there were 7 more of us that haven't yet started community service.

Basically, we gave Judi our information and discussed about what to do for our service learning project. She gave us a brief description of the projects, and we let her know our preferences and the areas of expertise along with our availabilities.

Possible service learning opportunities were as following:
  • Set up a Moodle server
  • Tutor a small computer group
  • Develop a program that matches the tutor and tutee with the info in database
  • Research and Develop online learning materials for a diverse population
 
I preferred more technical side of work, so I chose to set up a Moodle server.
Although I only had a vague idea of what a Moodle learning server was, it sounded interesting and I thought this was something that makes computer and networking technology more accessible to people on the other side of digital divide while I can maximize the use of my skills that I learned from school.
