Moodle

The University of Louisiana at Lafayette uses the Moodle LMS for online course components and fully online courses. Through this online learning platform, faculty can share a variety of course materials, including documents, presentations, videos, files, resource links, and more. Faculty can also use Moodle to communicate with students and assign learning activities, including written essays, quizzes, discussion forums, and polls to name a few. 

For those who have never used Moodle to teach, the Office of Distance Learning offers ODL 100: Moodle Basic Training, an online self-paced course that provides an overview of the core skills needed to create and deliver courses using Moodle and the EduTools supported by the Office of Distance Learning.
