			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today I&#8217;m learning about VOLE.  Apparently that&#8217;s something to do with Virtual and Online Learning Environments&#8230;</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll let you know what that means as the day progresses.</p>
<p>This morning we have been looking at MOODLE.  We&#8217;re playing with forums, profiles, feedback, messages and stuff.  Good fun.</p>
<p>The afternoon was spent doing more of the same.  We each have our own little Moodle sandpit to build stuff.  It looks like an interesting tool but I&#8217;m yet to be convinced that it would be worth investing in the hosting costs for us yet.</p>
<p>Lunchtime was an unexpected surprise.  We went to the church next door to the London office.  <a title=\"Lumen URC\" href="http://stewartcutler.com/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-feed-statistics/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5sdW1lbnVyYy5vcmcudWsv" target=\"_blank\">Lumen URC</a> has been completely renovated and is now a stunning space.</p>
<p><img title="window" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2537/4033963901_03cb9ba946_m.jpg" alt="window" width="180" height="240" /> <img title="stained glass" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2677/4034717344_6b935bfbff_m.jpg" alt="stained glass" width="240" height="180" /> <img title="light" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2668/4033963359_b7c1283e45_m.jpg" alt="light" width="180" height="240" /></p>
<p>It has meeting rooms, a multi faith prayer space, a sanctuary, a cloistered courtyard and a soon to be open vegetarian cafe.  It is quite simply stunning.  If you are passing Tavistock Place in London then go and have a look at what a falling down 50s building can be transformed into.</p>
<p>Perhaps that was a bit of a metaphor for the the day?  Is VLE something that can transform learning in the church?  Will it help to engage people?  Will it bring new life to an old idea?</p>
