On Wednesday I am presenting a one day course on "Writing for the 
web" to about two dozen people from local government. I would 
appreciate any comments, corrections and suggestions The outline for 
the course is  at <http://tomw.net.au/moodle/course/view.php?id=3>. 
You need to log in as a "guest".

So far I have prepared the outline and exercises. The next step is to 
take the content I normally present to university students, trim out 
the technical stuff and add a little more on writing.

The idea is to use a similar format and content to the course I ran 
in Samoa for the International Council for museums 
<http://www.tomw.net.au/2005/emuseums/report.shtml>.

I am using Moodle for assembling the material, although initially 
this is intended as a face-to-face course, not an online one. This is 
my first attempt at Moodle and it has gone well overall. The only 
problem I have had was with a very long URL which the Moodle HTML 
editor refused to accept and gave an obscure error message.
