|
<P>Moodle contains a wide range of activity modules that can be used to
|
|
build up any type of course.</P>

|
<P>This activity can be the most important - it is here that most discussion takes place.
|
|
Forums can be structured in different ways, and can include peer rating of each posting.
|
|
The postings can be viewed in a variety for formats, and can include attachments.
|
|
By subscribing to a forum, participants will receive copies of each new posting
|
|
in their email. A teacher can impose subscription on everyone if they want to.

|
|
<P>This module is a very important reflective activity. The teacher
|
|
asks the student to reflect on a particular topic, and the student can
|
|
edit and refine their answer over time. This answer is private and
|
|
can only be seen by the teacher, who can offer feedback and a grade
|
|
on each journal entry. It's usually a good idea to have about one
|
|
Journal activity per week.</P>

<P>Resources are content: information the teacher wants to bring into the
|
|
course. These can be prepared files uploaded to the course
|
|
server; pages edited directly in Moodle; or external web pages
|
|
made to appear part of this course.</P>

|
|
<P>Assignments allow the teacher to specify a task that requires students
|
|
to prepare digital content (any format) and submit it by uploading it
|
|
to the server. Typical assignments include essays, projects, reports
|
|
and so on. This module includes grading facilities.</P>

<UL>
|
|
<P>This module allows the teacher to design and set quiz tests, consisting of
|
|
multiple choice, true-false, and short answer questions. These
|
|
questions are kept in a categorised database, and can be re-used
|
|
within courses and even between courses. Quizzes can allow
|
|
multiple attempts. Each attempt is automatically marked, and the
|
|
teacher can choose whether to give feedback or to show correct answers.

|
<P>A choice activity is very simple - the teacher asks a question and specifies a
|
|
choice of multiple responses. It can be useful as a quick poll to
|
|
stimulate thinking about a topic; to allow the class to vote on
|
|
a direction for the course; or to gather research consent.

|
|
<P>The Survey module provides a number of verified survey instruments that
|
|
have been found useful in assessing and stimulating learning in
|
|
online environments. Teachers can use these to gather data from their
|
|
students that will help them learn about their class and reflect
|
|
on their own teaching.</P>
