Teaching with the Popular Open Source Course Management System

Developed by an extremely active open source community, Moodle is a sophisticated web-based course management system that's ideal for teaching remote online classes or as a way to supplement face-to-face learning. Teachers who use Moodle have full control over all settings for a course, including a flexible array of activities, such as assignments, forums, journals, quizzes, surveys, chat rooms, and workshops. Using Moodle gives them a comprehensive hands-on guide that explains how the system works, with plenty of examples and best practices for its many features and plug-in modules. Authored by the Moodle community, this authoritative book also exposes little known but powerful hacks for more technically savvy users. For anyone who is using- or thinking of using- this CMS, Using Moodle is required reading.
