ACPET LMS Session - Moodle
This document provides an overview of the Moodle learning management system (LMS) and how it can be implemented for e-learning. It describes the key features and tools in Moodle for content delivery, assessment, communication, and collaboration. Implementation involves planning delivery models, linking activities to assessment, determining support needs, and considering options for hosting Moodle externally if no internal IT support is available. The goal is to embed knowledge sharing and industry knowledge while allowing for peer review and flexible delivery approaches.

LMS – Goodfor: • familiar web-page look and feel, with newsy front page • adaptable – repository, course, group work, collaboration, self paced, facilitated • providing forums/support to learners • introducing teachers to online tools, training ground • relatively easy to learn and use (but takes time) • group/collaborative work • automated “assessment” • difficult to create course content • Incorporate course content made with rapid elearn tools (using SCORM)
- 8. LMS •To truly learn,students need to engage the world around them – publishing content for people other than classmates to read, and participating in the global discussion that surrounds the topics covered in class. •Students need to think critically and blog their experiences for others to read. •Students need to work collaboratively with other students in their class. •Students need to continue learning on a particular subject beyond the last class date. http://www.edugeekjournal.com/2008/02/05/the-death-of-the-learning-management-system-part-2/

- 11. Content Models Communication and collaborationmay take place using Chats and Forums for conversational activities and Choices to gain group feedback. Adding Wikis to your courses is an excellent way to allow students to work together on a single piece.
- 12. Content Tools • Workcan be submitted by students and marked by teachers using Assignments or Workshops. Automatic marking can be achieved by using Quizzes. You can integrate quizzes from third party software. • Content may be delivered and supported using Lesson module and SCORM activities. Key words can be added to Glossaries by yourself or, if you allow it, your students. You can add content from third party software • Surveys and Databases are also very powerful additions to any course.

- 14. Content Tools Content canbe generated quickly using purpose built “rapid elearning software” such as: •Articulate •Captivate •Udutu •iSpring Presenter
- 15. Resource Tools • Moodlesupports a range of different resource types that allow you to include almost any kind of digital content into your courses. You can create your own text and webpages quickly. • Of course the resource may already exist in electronic form (word, PDF, etc) so you may want to link to an uploaded file or external website or simply display the complete contents of a directory in your course files and let your users pick the file themselves.
- 16. Collaboration • Use Wikisto create content together, Forums and Comments to exchange ideas, Database to collectively gather resources, Glossary to create shared understanding of concepts ... and more!
- 17. Assessment • Grades canbe created in each activity in a course which are then added to the Gradebook. For example, grades in Assignment (all types), Quiz and Workshop activities are automatically added to Gradebook. In some activities you will have to turn grading on, such as ratings 'on' in Forum, Glossary and Database to send them to the Gradebook. • Students can do self and peer assessment type tasks by evaluating (and even rate) each other's Forum posts, Glossary entries, and Database entries.
