1. What is Moodle?

This may be the first time you have done an online course. We are using a Learning Management System called Moodle. Moodle has many advantages for providers like The Alzheimer Society of Ireland. It allows us to:

  • build flexible education and training courses that can be utilised by students at a time that best suits them
  • place video and text on a website to share with our students
  • communicate in various ways through Forums, Live Chat and through the use of interactive activities like polls and surveys
  • set short Quiz assignments for our students

Moodle has the great advantage in that you the student can access the course at a time that suits you best.

It is confidential and private - only people that we have enrolled can see the Moodle pages.
