Back to the Grindstone

So, by now all of us are returning headfirst to academic life after (hopefully) enjoying a restful summer. So, I'm curious: is anybody testing out a new classroom activity or project in their classes? Doing something different in the classroom this semester than they've done in the past? Do tell!

My new teaching venture is using Moodle, the open-source course web-page program. I've never used it before so I'm still feeling it out. The jury's still out on whether I'll prefer it over ANGEL, Blackboard, et al. We'll see...

I'm interested in hearing about your experience with Moodle. I'm plugging away with ANGEL (one online course, one on-campus course this term) because we have such great support for the program.

As for new things, I'm teaching our doctoral students Stata for the first time. So far, so good!
