An Introduction to
Moodle
![Page 2: Moodle presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.co/reader034/viewer/2022052222/54419d30b1af9ffb4b8b477b/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
What’s a Moodle?
An Interactive Class website
A modern way to deliver information to students in a way they can relate to
An EASY way for teachers to get immediate feedback
But most importantly
A safe place for students to learn, create their own content, and share that content with each other and their teacher
![Page 3: Moodle presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.co/reader034/viewer/2022052222/54419d30b1af9ffb4b8b477b/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Why does it work?
Because kids are already online and surprisingly,
They want something to do while they’re there.
Online assignments don’t feel like “school”
![Page 4: Moodle presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.co/reader034/viewer/2022052222/54419d30b1af9ffb4b8b477b/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
And…
They WANT to be creative
They WANT to manipulate information
They WANT to show off what they’ve done
They WANT to connect with teachers in a modern way
Moodle allows them to do that in a SAFE and CONTROLLED environment
![Page 5: Moodle presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.co/reader034/viewer/2022052222/54419d30b1af9ffb4b8b477b/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Finally…
Technology allows for those kids who may go “unnoticed” to thrive.
It also allows them to take an active role in their education.
![Page 6: Moodle presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.co/reader034/viewer/2022052222/54419d30b1af9ffb4b8b477b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
This sounds complicated.
It’s not.
In fact, it’s incredibly simple once you get going.
The kids already know how to do almost everything in the Moodle. It’s the teachers who are intimidated.
![Page 7: Moodle presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.co/reader034/viewer/2022052222/54419d30b1af9ffb4b8b477b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
So why should I ask my teachers to spend time learning this program?
![Page 8: Moodle presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.co/reader034/viewer/2022052222/54419d30b1af9ffb4b8b477b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Good Question
![Page 9: Moodle presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.co/reader034/viewer/2022052222/54419d30b1af9ffb4b8b477b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Because if your teachers are getting
comfortable….
Then your students are getting bored
![Page 10: Moodle presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.co/reader034/viewer/2022052222/54419d30b1af9ffb4b8b477b/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Keep in mind…
They’re not “students”, they’re people
![Page 11: Moodle presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.co/reader034/viewer/2022052222/54419d30b1af9ffb4b8b477b/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Like You…
And me
![Page 12: Moodle presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.co/reader034/viewer/2022052222/54419d30b1af9ffb4b8b477b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
And which would you prefer today?
Me standing in front of you and lecturing the whole time?
Or
You actually having an opportunity to take some control of your experience?
![Page 13: Moodle presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.co/reader034/viewer/2022052222/54419d30b1af9ffb4b8b477b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
When they get to work with their hands and
their minds…
There’s a much better chance they’re going to remember it.
![Page 14: Moodle presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.co/reader034/viewer/2022052222/54419d30b1af9ffb4b8b477b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
This isn’t technology for the sake of
technology…
It’s technology for the sake of our kids
![Page 15: Moodle presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.co/reader034/viewer/2022052222/54419d30b1af9ffb4b8b477b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
And just between you and I…
It actually makes the teachers job easier.
Much
Much
Easier
It’s true.
![Page 16: Moodle presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.co/reader034/viewer/2022052222/54419d30b1af9ffb4b8b477b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
They just have to get past one major
obstacle…
FEAR OF TECHNOLOGY
![Page 17: Moodle presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.co/reader034/viewer/2022052222/54419d30b1af9ffb4b8b477b/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Which is easy to overcome
You just have to be willing to try
![Page 18: Moodle presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.co/reader034/viewer/2022052222/54419d30b1af9ffb4b8b477b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
And remember one really important thing
Good instruction isn’t something kids earn, it’s something they deserve.
Even “those” kids
![Page 19: Moodle presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.co/reader034/viewer/2022052222/54419d30b1af9ffb4b8b477b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
So let’s get to it.
