Rebecka Anderson

Since 1998 I have been directly involved with the development of a wide variety of eLearning activities (over 50!). During that time I have served as the instructional designer, working directly with subject matter experts (SME), and as the tech person responsible for creating and customizing each learning environment. In addition to serving as an instructional designer and lms/cms/web designer, I have also served as a facilitator to several online discussions, and supported online communities of practice. Currently, I am an eLearning Specialist at the Partnership for People with Disabilities at Virginia Commonwealth University.

In addition to serving in the capacities mentioned above I remain actively engaged in professional development activities surrounding the topic of eLearning, and intentionally enroll in eLearning courses where possible so that I can continue to hold the perspective of what it is like to be an online student.

Moodle: Learning Management System Install & Design

This is Moodle, a LMS used to host online trainings. I’ve modifed Moodle to support trainings I’ve created in Lectora and Articulate. I customized it to match the look and feel of the project’s website. Additionally, I completed several backend modifications so that Moodle could host SCORM modules, and handle new user registrations, and report student progress to students and to admins. You may register and enroll in any training. At this time, only one training is available. enroll
