The document discusses the use of Moodle and Mahara at the University of Pardubice. Moodle is used as a learning management system to support blended learning. It is more teacher-oriented but allows for some collaboration. Moodle is used in bachelor and master language learning programs across various faculties. Mahara is used to support lifelong learning and self-reflection through ePortfolios. It is a content creation system that is student-centered and allows students to stay engaged for an unlimited period of time, though it requires student autonomy and facilitation.
