· Sound quality – Professional, Music intro behind, conversational interview between interviewee and presenter. Good constant sound levels. Good voice. Presenter voice occasionally sounds computer based.
· Broadcast quality – Very well constructed, though conversational. Clearly spoken. Little background noise.
· Suitability –Conversational approach, provides background to where Moodle came from and why Open Source should be used.
· Length – Appropriate, remained interested throughout and I didn’t get bored I did however find myself doing Ironing while listening. The conversational style made it eay listening.
· Interest – Yes. The podcast covered a variety of issues which were interlinked. It became clear that it was quite dated.
· Academic quality – Opinion based, however as the interviewee is central to Moodle development it is authoritative.
· Suggestions for improvement – A guard on the microphone would remove the occasional distraction.
· Suggestions for use – This is a ‘why and wherefore’ podcast. It provides a useful history of Moodle, and the thinking behind it, it isn’t necessarily for enhancing skills. It is an infomercial for want of a better term.
