Journal Content

Charanga and LGfL are please to announce the launch of Musitrax for Primary Music on the London Grid for Learning.

Musitrax was written by Lambeth Music Service and Charanga have spent the last two years developing it into an exciting and innovative interactive environment. Musitrax Sing is a child-centred approach to music teaching for Years 1 and 2. It is based on Kodály principles, using singing and singing games with fun and learning through play at its heart. Designed for Year 3, Musitrax Play continues the focus on singing, plus offering the opportunity to perform on various instruments.

 31st July 2010 - Digitalbrain contract expires

The LGfL Digitalbrain portal service has been available for all London schools, teachers and pupils since September 2001, and widely used.  Following consultation, planning and re-procurement started in 2006, LGfL has provided a three year ‘overlap’ migration period to the London MLE from DB, which ends in July 2010.  The LGfL Consortium greatly appreciates the long period of service and partnership with Digitalbrain (now Editure Education).

LGfL wrote directly to all London schools in February 2009, and again in October, advising that the LGfL Digitalbrain (DB) service will cease on the 31st July 2010.

DB Education will allow users read-only access to the Learning Manager platform from 1st August 2010 to 31st December 2010 during which period users will be permitted to download resources from the platform as follows :

Yellow Folders
If users wishes to download an entire Yellow folder, this can be exported by setting up a WebDAV connection in the Windows filer environment.   Individual files can be downloaded in the usual way, within the DB platform. Instructions on how to set up a WebDAV connection is available via www.support.digitalbrain.com.

Red Folders
Red folders (Learning modules) can be exported by right clicking on the folder and downloading in the usual way.

Email
After 31st July the email service will cease to be operational and therefore any inbound email will be bounced back to sender.
Emails stored within the platform can be exported into a zip file. The exported messages will be created in the open standard .eml format.

Guidance notes

Guides on how to download files from DB and transfer items into the London LME are available at www.mlesupport.lgfl.net.  DB will not provide telephone, email or other support except where LAs or schools have made individual arrangements directly with DB to do so.  After 31st July the LGfL help number will no longer divert calls to DB.

Beyond 31st December 2010, it may be possible, in liaison with DB, to recover residual files from within the platform, but this will incur charges.
