IMS Learning Impact 2009 is holding at Barcelona this week.

Learning Impact 2009

I’m glad to announce that my Google Summer of Code project about developing a Simple LTI client for Moodle has been chosen as finalist for the Learning Impact Award :P I know I’m not going to win, but I’m very happy about the nomination becouse I have to take up again this project to hand in as my Master Thesis. This nomination is an extra motivation to continue working on it the next 5-6 month.

Here is the full list of finalists

I’ve been very busy these last weeks because GSoC and other projects I’ve been working on. But I’m so close to the end, so close to my deserved holidays!!

Simple LTI Module for Moodle is nearly finished and ready to send to Google. I implemented a basic Moodle module following Simple LTI spec (an IMS Global Learning Consortium’s LTI 2.0 approach) so there will be a lot of work to do in this new application next months.

Dr. Chuck (my SoC mentor, and Developer Network Coordinator at IMS and Sakai guru) has really good ideas but, unfortunately Moodle core is not as versatile as Sakai. I don’t want to hack Moodle core to develop some of this great functionalities. I prefer to dedicate the rest of the year to design and implement some of this features in a smart way, not in the tricky one.

There isn’t an official release of our module but you can check it out from our code repository (you will need a git client). I have created a new course a DFWikiLABS site called Moodle’s IMS Simple LTI Module where you will be able to find some more information and docs and a link to a test site where you will be able to see Simple LTI Module and Filter in action.
