Okay, I’ll not create a new page, but here’s yet another “hey, here’s a thing that should be done!”
I made a times tables course in Moodle but it was totally at the “person learnign stuff and playing around” stage. For YEARS I stopped short of …. sharing online, when all the time people are asking “how can I teach the times tables?” I *had* sort of decided that would probably be the best “everybody wants this” door to open, even though there is so much more to math than that. And every time I got close, well, something happened to make it not happen.
Same thing this time! When I went to spruce up appearances and sweep out the clutter… I experienced the things that inspire people to say “Open source is just too tricky! You have to know too much! And it has lousy support!” … becaues to change anything, I had to change my user name to “all lower case” — WHY??????? — and it wouldn’t take just doing that because “that’s already taken.” No, it isn’t; you just can’t tell the difference. Well, except to tell me you can’t accept AuntJames. In that process, I don’t have access.
Except I *have* gotten offers of support, and I’ve done enough Helping People With Computers to know how tricky it is to figure out where their understanding is. So… here’s a summary of where I sort of am, which no, sorry, I cannot copy and paste without erasing everything I wrote. Can we go back to CODE?????? I can’t paste into a page?
No, I don’t know the best way to organize this stuff.
