Moodle (Modular Object-Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment) is a free open-source learning management system or e-Learning platform, that serves educators and learners across the globe. It is the most widely used LMS in the world and currently has over 68 million users world-wide (and growing!). Moodle is a learning platform designed to provide educators, administrators and learners with a single robust, secure and integrated system to create personalised learning environments.
Moodle is an Open Source Software – free software that you have permission to modify to suit your requirements. As such it is designed to be easily updated and highly customisable. Organisations using Moodle include schools, universities, government agencies etc. and by adding their own style, colours and logos each has created a website to suit their organisation and audience.
Moodle was designed to be a learning tool. Although it is an impressive piece of technology, it was designed with pedagogy in mind and that had been the main focus ever since. As it has been updated over the years, Moodle has evolved as a highly interactive elearning programme. Students and teachers both benefit from the forums, chatrooms, blogs etc. that are available as additions to their courses.
Teachers can easily structure course content so their students can navigate through the resources and activities in the correct order, getting the most from the learning process.
As Moodle grows in popularity (and it is fast becoming the VLE of choice for elearning) it is a program that your students will come across as they progress through tertiary education and on into the work place. They will benefit from an introduction to Moodle at an early stage in their career.
