The Sloodle Controller on my Moodle site is showing up for students. It is supposed to be a teacher/administrator only tool, but I am seeing it everywhere. My instructor for my Cyber Pedagogy course even mentioned it in her review of my online class component for the Fall semester class I will be teaching. As a result, I hid the controller.
I posted a help request in the Sloodle Comments forum and explained my situation. Peter Bloomfield, a Sloodle coder, responded back pretty quickly. He said that if I hide the Controller, my Second Life objects cannot connect to my Moodle site. So I made the Controller visible again.
Now a student can see all the pages and links, but they cannot edit or see the notecards or anything like that. Below are screen shots as the students see them. The first image is the link as set up on the main page, the second is the activities menu, the third is the page seen when “Sloodle Modules” is clicked from the menu, and the fourth is the page seen when the Sloodle Controller is clicked. If you click on the images below, you can see them in larger view.
As I get answers to my questions on Sloodle, I will post them here.

Hi Laura,
Thanks for the comments, I hope we’ll be able to adjust things to work better for you – or at least advise you how you can make the adjustments yourself.
