Learning Systems

Starting in September 2011, UVic will offer a single learning management system

Moodle is the learning management system of choice. Blackboard users have been receiving assistance in their transition to Moodle over the past several months.

Instructors who did not take advantage of the automated content migration service but would still like to reuse materials from their Blackboard courses need to move them manually by the end of August, at the very latest. Click here for more information on migrating content manually.

Teaching with Moodle

If you are new to teaching with Moodle, be sure to register for a Moodle Fundamentals course.

Instructors who would like a one-on-one consultation to assist them with course design or different aspects of the pedagogy of teaching with Moodle must first acquire fundamental skills by attending one of the face-to-face or online courses listed to the right under Workshops & Events. The Moodle 099 series of workshops provides an overview to those considering the use of this learning management system, while the 101 series covers organizing the virtual learning environment and using basic tools, including 'resources' and 'activities'.
