Course Outline

Overview

This version of Moodle: Editing and Enhancing is a self-study resource designed to help RRU core faculty, associate faculty, and staff build their basic Moodle knowledge and get up to speed on how to add and edit Moodle tools. This self-study resource was designed, built, and is supported by staff in RRU's Centre for Teaching and Educational Technologies (CTET). (We are the folks whose main role is to support faculty and quality teaching and learning at RRU.)

Learning Outcomes

Upon completion of this self-study, you should be able to do the following (and probably more!):

  1. Identify Moodle resources and activities and their applications
  2. Use various Moodle resources (e.g. books, pages, URLs, etc.) to add content to a Moodle course
  3. Use various Moodle activities to create engaging activities for students
  4. Edit existing resources and activities in a Moodle course
  5. Add media, such as images and videos, to a Moodle course
  6. Identify ways of getting additional Moodle support

After Completing This Self-Study Resource

There are, of course, many more activities that you can complete in Moodle other than what this self-study  offers. We recommend that you reach out to your CTET connections as you work on building your real RRU course. Your CTET instructional designers (people who are experts in how to teach) and learning technologists (people who are experts in the tools we use to teach online) are the best resource to help you think about your course design and the Moodle (or other) tools that support it.
