Rebecca Ritchie and Alex Thackray Macquarie University
iLearn is their Moodle
Mandated grade book use because of lack of consistency, lack of transparency with giving out grades to students
Business fac 350 casual staff
Reduce administrative errors from multiple spreadsheet use
Academics not happy to make the change, excel seen as being more powerful
Reduce grade appeals
Ongoing information about student performance
Faculty recognised there would be resistance and project manager assigned and training rolled out
Started with small pilot overs 3 years complete rollout across all of business
Lot of fear countered by one to one appointments
Increased time in front of screen
SMS did not talk to Moodle
Terminology a problem between Moodle and SMS
Mandated use from start of 2015
Questioning grades happening earlier
Ranking useful to this cohort
