Setting up a Moodle Course

This course is designed to be a self-paced course, aimed principally at teachers who are new to Moodle LMS. The overall course time should be between 8 and 12 hours in length, depending on the complexity of the course you wish to create. The modules are designed to be taken in sequential order.

At the end of each module, there is an assignment that builds upon the previous assignment and should result in a complete useable and teachable course, containing end of module quizzes and assignment for your students.

Your instructor is Polly Watt, who is a Moodle Teacher Trainer and Moodle Administrator.  You can contact your instructor via email on pollywatt@me.com
