Does your school have a virtual learning environment?

[Dean]

Yeh, I hate it and everyone complains because no one knows how to use it lol.

We have something called fronter or MLE
It's nice because it's got revision stuff and teachers can post homework on there instead of handing out sheets or books. There was even an e-mail section until the IT tech guys found out that we were e-mailing each other in lessons instead of working, and promptly blocked it.

At school we just used shared folders which got rather confusing but in college we had a VLE was really handy so that we could continue with work at home or submit assignments.

We have this thing called blackboard. Kinda useless though, only some of my professors used it, the majority didn't. And the ones that did use it were technologically impaired and always had issues with posting up lecture powerpoints and what not.

[The Professor]

Yeah we had one installed about 4 years ago. Thing is we just use remote desktop to get onto the school system from home and the school has a really organised drive structure which it puts the work and resources and stuff on and its had that since I joined in 2003. So yeah, its pretty redundant really. The only time we used it was when our english teacher thought it'd be clever to post some english homework on there last year but it broke and she got annoyed. We've not used it since

Well ours was only introduced like whenever I made this thread and is actively used.
