Course Management System (Moodle)

This website offers general information about Moodle and help and support resources for students and instructors. Moodle is an open source course management system. Instructors can create course websites that include text, multimedia learning resources, and activities. A rich set of tools and features are included to enable collaboration and group participation. These tools can be used to teach classes completely online, to enhance traditional classes, and to support hybrid learning environments.

This service offering is part of our Academic Technology Tools services.
