The
internet is full of resources, webpages, music, notes etc...Some
students do get lost or take a lot of time to find the right tools
for learning. Others are easily distracted. Parents feel uneasy that
opening the internet for students might lead them to meet other
persons who are not teaches and who might teach their kids other
subjects, which might hurt their children in one way or another.
How
can all three (teachers, students and parents) meet online to
continue learning? In other words, can they have the educational
technology all in one, safe place?
All three would like a place on the internet where students could revise the lesson conducted in class and
find alternative help too in order to understand the lesson better.
One can submit papers/written exercises online. Parents can watch their own child's progress. Teachers can have a
private chat both with parents and students at the same time.
Today we are presenting Moodle, which
is a free and open-source software learning management system written
in PHP and distributed under the GNU General Public License.
Developed on pedagogical principles, Moodle is used for blended
learning, distance education, flipped classroom and other e-learning
projects in schools, universities, workplaces and other sectors.
