Moodle is a free, open-source learning management system that allows teachers to create individualized websites for students. It provides many web 2.0 tools like blogs, wikis, and discussion boards. Teachers can facilitate learning through Moodle from any location with internet access. Moodle also allows for email communication between students and teachers, cloud storage of documents, calendars, and gradebooks. It can help differentiate instruction for various student needs and close gaps in access to technology outside of school. Moodle supplements and enhances classroom learning by providing structured independent and collaborative work for students to engage with at their own pace.

Blogs, Wiki Pages, Discussion Boards Cloud Computing/ Save documents (e.g., Word and PowerPoint) directly to Moodle Calendars, Homework Reminders, Grade Books Quizzes, surveys, and other student analysis tools.
Instructional Gaps Differentiation: Moodle allows teachers the opportunity to modify assignments based on student needs, i.e., ELD, special needs, or GATE students to name a few examples. Provides opportunities for learners who do not have access to this technology outside of school. Prepares learners with technology skills for Jr. high, high school, and college
Why Online Learning? Supplements content taught in the classroom Structured independent learning outside of the classroom Enhances and differentiates content taught in the classroom Students work at their own pace Students have the option of working collaboratively
Benefits Replicates the 21 st century workforce skills Emphasizes the use of multimedia technology, collaboration, project based learning, and problem based learning Enhances Computer Lab Instruction Increases student engagement and motivation Portfolio of student work
School District Resources How To Start? District Training is available. Colleagues as resources IT department will help with the basic set up and uploading of student names and passwords. Moodle support and reference materials to use at your site.
Initial Steps for Success Teach students how to use the technology. This may take a few computer lab sessions before they master the strategy (Johnston, 2007; Hargis & Schofield, ). Train a few students to assist you when working with the whole class (Laureate Education, Inc., 2010). Problems and errors will happen. Test the technology before you use it.
Blog-Example of the First Steps Looked at examples of blogs on the internet. Taught students how to construct and respond to blogs. Wrote a blog and asked students to respond to my blog on a topic studied in class. Students then wrote a blog on a topic discussed in class. Peers responded to the blogs. Note: Once students develop proficiency with the basics of the technology, I will develop lessons that teach how to embed hyperlinks, images, and videos.
