Subject: How to call a module method dynamically

I know about object instantiation and the send method, but the methods I
want to call are not in a class.  They live in a module.

module Foo

  module Bar

    def mymethod
      "xyz"
    end

  end

end


I can call it statically, like:

myvar = Foo::Bar::xyz


But how can I call it dynamically.  Basically I have some batch jobs
kicked off by a rake task.  I want to use a single rake task to kick off
any job, so I don't have to have a task for every single job, I can just
pass the job name (i.e. the name of the module method) to my one task
and have it kicked off.

Any help is appreciated!  I'm missing something simple, but I can't find
it on google or in pickaxe.
