Moodle is an online tool that allows educators to interact with students outside the classroom and manage a course from anywhere. In Moodle Essential Training for Teachers, Chris Mattia shows how this program works for teachers on three levels: disseminating information, creating a forum where ideas are exchanged, and assessing the progress of students. Chris shows how to build course materials with Moodle's HTML editor, post assignments, and save time by using Moodle's grade book to evaluate tests automatically and organize scores. Exercise files accompany the course.
Topics include:
- Installing and configuring Moodle
- Preparing media files for distribution inside a Moodle course
- Posting instructions on the course home page
- Setting up course-specific glossaries and databases
- Building assignments students can complete online
- Using Moodle's built-in email and discussion boards
- Creating a wiki inside Moodle for students to build and contribute content
- Developing multimedia exams to assess course comprehension
