Training educators: plan for replicating the experience

This paper reports on a short survey and a training course offered to the faculty members of the University of Genova with the aim of driving the users of the university Learning Management System in the transition from Moodle 1.9 to Moodle 2, transition that took place in August 2012. The survey has been administered to lectures and staff to understand their needs and gather subscriptions before the actual starting of the training course. A similar process is now in progress in the context of the Bishkek Academy of Finance and Economics (Kyrgyzstan), where the same survey has been recently delivered. Results obtained in both institutions are presented. Indeed, although we are aware of the fact that these two universities represent two different contexts, being geographically far, different in size, and with different diffusion of ICT, we think we can take advantage of the experience of the University of Genova to transfer some practices on the organization and delivery of training courses in the Bishkek Academy of Finance and Economics.
