Excellent opportunity Tomaz! This will be a refreshing, invigorating and rewarding time for you. I bet it will take you a while to shake off the bells and adjust your routine. Never hesitate to ask questions of your new colleagues! Enjoy! Enjoy! Enjoy!
Congratulations,
Cheers
John

Congratulations, Tomaz! This is a fantastic opportunity and having you on-board at Moodle is definitely a great move! All the best, you’re gonna do very well!

After the string of comments and tweets I feel lazy not to have replied. Doing it now…

Thank you. Thank you all for congrats, best wishes, advice (you are so spot on Kathryn!) and the necessary pressure of expectations (“no pressure, no diamonds” is often a very poignant line, I like it).

I find two things particularly kind and humbling in your comments:
- the idea that ‘Martin has made a good move’ (sure he’d want to hear that too )
- the recognition I like to give things a shake with a grounded perspective (Moodle HQ team, don’t worry)

OK, enough self-flattery. Thank you guys. By the way, I start on March 1, Education Department wants its piece of flesh until then.

I look forward to a great year(s ?) ahead.

Tomaz

Hey Tomaz,
Boy you are a real mover, (and shaker too no doubt as Martin and Moodle are going to no doubt find out). Great choices all round I think. It’s great to see organizations recognizing their applicability to education and the need to find out more.
Congrats

PS Now you realise we’ll all be looking out for practical results from all this research, no pressure though

Congratulations to ‘Moodle’ they have picked up a great thinker in you Tomaz. Finally, a real person with real ideas about real classroom aplications for ITC doing research for the rest of us. Have fun and stay in touch with all your findings.
Cheers.

I think both you and Martin have made very wise moves.

As for being a researcher: Is that when you look for something and then when you find it, you lose it and have to go searching again? I do that all the time with my keys and glasses case.

Well done Tomaz: it’s a great sounding new role you’ve got there and all the very best wishes to you. Am looking forward to the good new learning-related noises coming from Moodle HQ soon
