Moodle and meerkats in the field!



This photo is of Jenny Maud who graduated as a vet from Cambridge University in 2006 (and a friendly meerkat!).

The photo was taken in the middle of the Kalahari desert where she was carrying out a research project on meerkats whilst simultaneously administering the online content of distance learning courses at the RVC. She is now working on the Global Citizenship project.

Using a satellite modem link and a laptop, Jenny was able to log in to Moodle and enrol new users whilst watching her meerkats...... now that is a pretty cool use of technology!
