What is Moodle?
Moodle is an online Learning Management System (similar to WebCT or BlackBoard). The word Moodle is an acronym for Modular Object-Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment. Moodle is a Learning Management System used by instructors to create Web Sites to post course resources, notes, handouts, assignments, grades, quizzes, and to facilitate online communication between students. It is a password-protected environment that you can access 24/7 from any computer with Internet access.
