Setting up a Zoom Session

Zoom sessions are managed by ACOM's Moodle Team. Once you know when you would like to host your session, email moodle@acom.edu.au with the time and date (bearing in mind all sessions are set to AEDT/AEST). 

The Moodle Team will then set up your session and provide links in Moodle. Once the session is set up, it's always a good idea to let your students know  the time and date, and to send them a link to Zoom (provided by the Moodle Team) with your notification.

Some of my older units have disappeared, why?

Units with past end dates are displayed in a separate tab under “My Courses”, listed by year. As our Moodle site has limited storage some units in years past will be archived and be made unavailable. If you require a record of studies you can request one from our Registrar.

The Spiritual Formation Handbook gives an overview of the unit and the expectations of the people involved.

Student Development Chart

This is the Student Development Chart. It will be a good idea to download the file and read through the instructions before the year begins. It will be a part of the end of year interview conducted between a student and their Formation Director.

The Student Development Chart Areas document is designed to give you a framework as you think about the areas of growth that should be developed or focussed on throughout the year.
