Social construction of a MYP Science Curriculum

If you are a middle school science teacher perhaps you would be interested in this idea. Writing a set of texts, activities,labs that could be sold under a creative commons license. You or we could make money out of our work, share it and also share some of the sales with less well off teachers and students in developing countries world wide.

Moodle support

I administered, (with all the server side technical linux configuration issues) a moodle server for 4 years for my school and for my own website for 6 years. I have a wealth of experience in organising staff training and content development.

Presently I am developing some of the various tools in Moodle to help with common school curriculum administration .

Here is an example of a MYP unit planner database.

http://www.abceducation.ch/mod/data/view.php?id=247

You can try it out here or if you have a Moodle instance installed you can download this zip file and install in your moodle. You also need to put this javascript file in http://yourserver/yourmoodlerootdirectory/ directory

The database is free for you to use and further develop as long as you make it freely available to the world.If you like this database please make a donation to our partner school Shree Mangal Dvip in Nepal Shree Mangal Dvip school in Nepal.
