The presenter will share how he set up a course to conduct an experimental study with three treatment groups. Because the students and teachers participating in the study were unfamiliar with Moodle, a number of techniques were implemented in an attempt to make the course as straight forward as possible. For example, built-in features such as availability restrictions and activity tracking were used to present the activities one-by-one so that the participants completed them in the correct order. In the second part, the presenter will show a number of third party plugins and filters that were used: Questionnaire 2.7.0, the PoodLL Filter (Once Player), and the Generico Filter. In addition to the use of these plugins and filters, other adaptions because of the three treatment groups needed to be made such as multiple versions of many of the questions and descriptions in the Question Bank. In the final part, the presenter will describe some of the mishaps in the process of setting up the course and the actual implementation of the study. It is hoped that this presentation may provide some inspiration and practical advice from a non-programmer's perspective for those who are considering conducting an experimental study with Moodle.
