The Moodle technology has spread quickly as a learning management solution in higher education particularly among smaller, undergraduate-centered colleges with a commitment to innovative pedagogical practice. At this meeting, active and newer users of Moodle will gather to further develop a strong community of practice and peer-support network around Moodle. This meeting will focus on both front-end and back-end best practices. The goal of this event is to build strong collaborative support and foster a sense of community among the Moodle users at participating institutions.
NITLE invites faculty, instructional technologists, system administrators, librarians, and other campus personnel to present and discuss techniques both for effective teaching and engaged learning using Moodle, and for effective management and support of Moodle. Topics for the event will include:
