  • Install Moodle Plugins on a Moodle server
  • Enhance courses with the added functionality provided by plugins

I have chosen over 35 plugins for this course that I have personally used and tested over my 8 years in eLearning, and each of the plugins have unique characteristics and functionality that can be added to your Moodle course and enhance your students learning experience! 

Some of my favourite plugins are covered including:

  • H5P - Add html5 interactivity to your Moodle course
  • Attendance - Take attendance in Moodle
  • Questionnaire - Create questionnaires for your staff and students
  • Checklist - Create amazing checkists
  • Heatmap - Which activities and resources are used most/least?

  • Game - Snakes and Ladders, Sudoku, Hangman..
  • Course Formats - Collapsed Topics, Tab, Grid, Buttons, Board!

I will begin the course by guiding learners through the process of installing their own Moodle server at home, which can then be used to practice everything taught in the course. 

Following the introduction section, the course is split into 6 sections - we begin with course format plugins, closely followed by atto text editor plugins, course plugins, communication plugins, gamification plugins, reporting plugins and finally some random plugins. 

In each section of the course, I will show learners how to download the plugin, the various methods of installing plugins, as well as guiding learners through the process of setting up and configuring the plugin.   All lesson also include a downloadable paper guide, and each of these guides can printed to form a Moodle plugin user manual.  

So, If you are an Administrator, Manager, Teacher, Classroom assistant, Course Creator, or just a Professional interested in enhancing online Moodle courses through the use of plugins, why not sign up today? 

Plugins that not only enhance your course, but enhance the student experience as well!
