About the Author

Silvina P. Hillar is Italian and has been teaching English since 1993. She has always had a great interest in teaching and has done a lot of research on teaching methodologies, management techniques and embed them into e-learning and teaching. She has also explored different types of e-learning combining them with Moodle. She also researches on multimedia assets that enhance teaching and learning through VLE platforms. She tries to embed the learning of students through new resources that are appealing and innovative for them. In this way, she ensures that multimedia stimulates different thinking skills as well as multiple types of intelligence.

She is an English teacher, a Certified Legal Translator (English/Spanish), and has a postgraduate degree in Education (graduated with honors).

She has worked at several schools and institutions with native English speaking students and students of English as a foreign language, and as an independent consultant for many international companies in the capacity of an Interpreter, Translator, and Virtual Learning Environment ( VLE ) Course Designer.

She has always had a passion for technological devices concerning education. Formerly, videos and cassettes were a must in her teaching lessons; the computer was, and still does, play a big role. Her brother, Gastn C. Hillar, designed some programs and games for her teaching. Lately, she has been teaching using Moodle and the Web. She believes that one of the most amazing challenges in education is bridging the gap between classic education and modern technologies.

She has authored: Moodle 1.9: The English Teacher's Cookbook , Moodle 2.0 Multimedia Cookbook , Moodle 2.5 Multimedia Cookbook second edition , Mind Mapping with FreeMind and Moodle 2.3 Multimedia Video Course .

When not tinkering with computers, she enjoys travelling with her son, Nico and her love, Jorge, with whom she spends wonderful time.

Acknowledgements

Id like to thank all the team members at Packt Publishing, who worked with me as an incredibly helpful team; Larissa Pinto, who trusted me to work on this project--we worked together so that the idea came into this book--and Onkar Wani, who was very patient and helpful with time management. I would like to thank my technical reviewer, Rashil Shah; my reviewer Susan Nash; and proofreaders, for their thorough reviews and insightful comments.

The writing process of a book involves a great amount of lonely hours, therefore, I owe tremendous thanks to my wonderful son, Nico, who was very patient and supportive in the writing process of the book. He was on some occasions forced to be alone while I concentrated on my writing. Special thanks to my love Jorge, who was very supportive during the whole writing process.

My parents, Susana and Jose, who always stand by me and support my decisions. My brother, Gastn C. Hillar ,and his wife, Vanesa Olsen, and my nephews, Brandon and Kevin, with whom I spend unforgettable moments.

Last but not least, I would like to thank the Rivera and Dimuro families, with whom I share delicious asados.

I would also like to thank all my students, either virtual or real, who make it possible for me to be a teacher.
