Building Moodle At Uvic

The document summarizes the origins and development of Moodle@uvic.ca. It began organically through grassroots interest from various faculties. A Moodle team was created in 2007 to pilot and centrally support Moodle across the University of Victoria. Their plan was to integrate Moodle with the university's systems like authentication, enrollments, and portals. They faced challenges like technical issues and instructor buy-in, which they addressed through solutions and improved support. By 2009, Moodle saw widespread adoption across UVic with over 400 courses on the platform and a focus on instructional design and pedagogical uses of the LMS.
