 I'm education manager at Moodle HQ, I'm a big fan of the community. You may, you probably realise, especially after yesterday's birthday party in the birthday cake, that Moodle is 20 years old. And in actual fact, thanks to the way back machine Internet archive, this is the forum post on the original Moodle site that Martin made announcing Moodle 1.0 is ready to fly with loads of cool new features like documentation and so on. At that time in 2002, he was updating and giving us announcements. What people don't realise though, is that people were replying to this. For instance, the day after his announcement, we had Ivan who said, Oh, now, documentation. It will cost me a pretty penny to read that documentation online from Yugoslavia. So email it to me as soon as possible, Martin. And also Abdul with rather scary prescience says, do you have plans for a grade book? So you see that even then in 2002, this was the very beginnings of the Moodle community. And now, of course, that community, which is mainly on the site Moodle.org, has many different forums, which are in courses, which we actually call community, in 30 different languages. And so you can join in whatever your native language is. This is a screenshot of my dashboard on Moodle.org. So I love going in and reading forum posts. So I'm sharing my experiences in Moodle in English, Moodle in French, Moodle in German, Moodle in Russian, I might just go in Moodle in Spanish, I'm just maybe. And so one of the great things about Moodle is that it is multi-lingual. And the words, the interface, as we call them the language strings in Moodle, that's another way that you can contribute, not only by answering and asking questions in the forums, but on another community site, lang.moodle.org, you could help improve the language strings of your native language. If it's a language that doesn't yet have a language pack, you could maybe volunteer to start one. If your native language is English, well, if you're American, you can actually help improve Moodle US, which is a little bit different from the English language pack. There's also actually a language pack called EN Fix, which if you spot something that's not quite right in the main English language pack, you can suggest that. So there are lots of ways that you can help improve the interface in different languages. And it's not only about seeing it as you're navigating round Moodle, of course, what we want now is we want people to translate Moodle content. So on the site Moodle Academy, we are inviting people to come in and take a course it's called Translating Moodle Academy. Actually Richard, an academy member, he did a presentation on that yesterday. And then you'll understand how to use our special translation plug-in and turn our courses into other languages, which again is a great way of enlarging our community. So Moodle Academy, another community site where you can get some professional development and you can also collaborate there, not only just coming and watching and engaging in our webinars. Here's the ones you've got coming up, we have two a month. But also you could volunteer to co-present a webinar. You could volunteer to co-create a course, for example. So various ways that you can contribute. And in terms of courses and course content, don't forget MoodleNet and MoodleNet have presentations as well. This is our site for finding, sharing, curating open educational resources. And already we've actually added, I think it's 69 Moodle courses which you can get as a collection. You can adapt to update for your own purposes. Just another example is a collection of competency frameworks. We have quiz questions. We may shortly be having some user tours and so on. So as well as looking at them and taking, you could also give some of your own. Other ways you can contribute to the community and as you see it's kind of lots of different communities but they all make one whole is Moodle user documentation. Which it is a wiki and I'm saying that because rather than as I often see in the Moodle forums people saying, oh that page is out of date, someone needs to correct it, well you could correct it. Feel free to go into the user documentation and actually update it or correct it, update the screenshots. If you're a little bit nervous about editing a wiki directly you can actually make a comment on what's called the talk page and then I will see it or someone will see it and we can make that edit for you if you're a bit too shy. But do feel free, it's an ongoing moving document. Now that's what users as in admins teachers for developers, the developer documentation, actually now there's a cool new site for developers, developer resources MoodleDev.io and so the former wiki that held the developer documentation which was somewhat outdated is now gradually being migrated and updated over. So if you're a developer then you are very welcome to help migrate this and this is using GitHub so you will, this is very developer-y if that's the word I don't know. And so you're very welcome to help migrate from the old developer wiki into the new on GitHub MoodleDev.io. Developers are an integral part of our community as well as teachers and admins and so on. If you're a developer and you've developed a plugin then rather than keeping it close to your bosom and not wanting anyone to have it, why not share it in Moodle.org plugins in our plugins directory so others can benefit from it or perhaps you could maintain a plugin that's been neglected and abandoned and no one's looking after it and review as well so we can keep the many plugins up to date. Now in terms of finding bugs with Moodle, that's not just for developers, anyone can report a bug. Of course if you're a developer then not only could you report it you could actually fix it. If you find something on your site that's not working how you expect go to the Moodle.org forums and ask other people if they have similar problems. If they also have a similar problem you could report this on our tracker. Here's another site, tracker.moodle.org. In fact that screenshot you see there that is a heat map although I thought it was a word cloud. Is that the same thing? I don't know. You can see all of our community sites there with the largest one Moodle.org there and actually Moodle.org I feel is the portal if you like to our many other community sites and currently this is the portal Moodle.org and that's what it looks like at the moment and at the top there is a black bar with links to some of our other community sites. Now I can't remember I think it was 2013 I did mean to ask Helen before I started that this was last updated. I know it was shortly after I had learned I had shortly after I joined Moodle HQ and so it was very much in need of a revamp and also we really want to focus on community if on Moodle.org. So behind the scenes over the last few months we have actually been redesigning first of all the front page of Moodle.org but then it's going to go out into other sites as well to be consistent and to have a new modern feel with a community focus. So coming soon in possibly in October at some point we'll have a new look Moodle.org and you can see immediately welcome to the Moodle community and very much a community focus. You can still see links and right at the top the first link there forums so you can go and share your experiences. Also I don't know what that's called those circles in the top right but again quick access to Moodle.com to academy to Moodle.net and you'll also see a big button get involved which takes you to a page where you can access the various ways in which you can get involved with the community. We would like to point out that we'd love it if you've done our translating course on academy at some point if you can help us to translate this front page of Moodle.org also if you're a language pat maintainer if you can help because currently being multilingual Moodle is translated Moodle.org is translated into 16 languages and we'd like to launch it with translations. Now because we really want to improve our focus on community we have a new team member no one's leaving we're all still here but we have now a new Moodle community engagement lead Orelisulie who literally started on Monday although she has been using Moodle for many years so I'm just going to stop now and in the last couple of minutes I'll pass over to Orelisulie just to say hello Thank you Mary Hello I haven't prepared anything for this because I was just going to say hello I've obviously just started on Monday I'm the community engagement lead now for Moodle and I'm trying to find out what my role is what my remit is but I have some ideas and some kind of missions at heart of making Moodle.org the center of our community and I know it sounds a bit fluffy but I'd like to see the community side being a warm place where everybody feels they can share things contribute and help each other and also where people can feel they can ask for help where sometimes may or may not be the case but one of the key things and obviously my name is Orelisulie I'm French I would like the Moodle.org site to be accessible to non-English speakers so the translation is essential but also the processes in which we involve people in how we look for new features in Moodle I haven't got anything on me an essential as well so it's just looking at all these things and I hope over the time different initiatives will do something that work but please keep giving us feedback and come and talk to me about ways that you think the community can be brought together as well and I'm really happy to hear all your views thank you We will now accept questions we have just a couple minutes for questions and please do speak into the microphone because we are recording and we have folks that will really benefit from the amplification so raise your hand please if you have a question and if you have a microphone out to you Hello Mary Hello Rodrigo I think that in Brazil we have this problem that the community do not know much English so do you think in this next version we will be able to have more videos? I will make videos every day if that's what people want, absolutely and let's hope that people will provide good transcripts in different languages as well of a good quality Thank you
