Browser - microsoft.com/en-us/edge
Because there is a good chance that you may already use other Microsoft products (Hotmail, live etc.), we recommend using a separate browser for your work in the DBT. This helps keep login sessions separated. A helpful one that seems to play well with the platforms we use in the DBT is Microsoft Edge. However, you can still use any browser you wish.
The MOD – mod.moore.edu.au
The Mod is the place where students access course content. It is a Moodle platform.
Tutor Sandbox - Course: Tutor Sandbox (moore.edu.au)
This Moodle 'Course' on the MOD contains various dummy moodle activities where you can play around with the activities.
Course Resources - mod.moore.edu.au/course/view.php?id=22
The Course Resources page is generally aimed at the students. However, it is well worth checking out so that you can help students or make recommendations. This is also where you will be able to access the Student Handbook and the Course Glossary.
Microsoft Teams – teams.microsoft.com
Teams is a very powerful platform by Microsoft that we can use in the DBT to communicate. There is a smartphone app you can also download if you wish, though your daily check in should suffice for students. If you were a DBT tutor previously, note that our use of Microsoft Teams from 2021 will be for chat and meetings only.
Tutor email – webmail.moore.edu.au
You will be assigned a Moore College email address. This email address is the only way to communicate with the Registrar’s Department. It is here where your marker reports will be sent and returned. Registrars may be in contact if there are issues concerning academic misconduct or student requests for extensions. Please also check your email daily as students may sometimes email you instead of messaging on Teams. Kindly remind them to use Teams instead. It may be worth installing the Microsoft Outlook app on your device for your DBT work.
