Moodle is a free, open-source learning management system that allows teachers to create individualized websites for students. It provides many web 2.0 tools like blogs, wikis, and discussion boards. Teachers can facilitate learning through Moodle from any location with internet access. Moodle also allows for email communication between students and teachers, cloud storage of documents, calendars, and gradebooks. It can help differentiate instruction for various student needs and close gaps in access to technology outside of school. Moodle supplements and enhances classroom learning by providing structured independent and collaborative work for students to engage with at their own pace.
Teaching and Learning with Drupal
This document discusses using Drupal in online classrooms to take advantage of Web 2.0 technologies and social constructivist learning approaches. It suggests using blogs for faculty communication with students as blogs are a familiar medium that build a sense of student ownership and community. Blogs can also promote reflective learning, discussion, debate, and public writing where everyone is both teacher and learner.
