Contents Introduction to Moodle Open source learning management platform Flexibility, modularity, adjustability Integration with other tools Pedagogical Issues Approaches to learning E-Language Learning Tools Optimization of Resources: Stages in Moodle Integration
What is Moodle Modular Object Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment  Freely-available learning management system Used by 70 million people in around 200 countries Supports over 70 languages Scaffolding-ready (modular, dynamic, flexible, adjustable, compatible, template-based system)
Learning Management Systems Ease in publishing online materials without extensive knowledge of HTML. Ease in creating quizzes, surveys, and other activities with immediate scoring and feedback without knowledge of programming. Easy registration for students. Ease of management of password-protected access to the course. Ease in creation of asynchronous fora. Automatic recording of synchronous chats. Layout consistency throughout the course. Integrated tracking and monitoring capabilities. (Rom án-Mendoza, 2001)
Most Frequent Uses of Moodle Repository of learning materials, pedagogical resources and announcements Notes and materials written by the teacher Access to external information (textual, audiovisual, etc.) Space for students to upload materials Testing space Space for communication and collaboration
Preliminary Pedagogical Issues I Student technical skills / class size How familiar are my students with the tool(s) I want to use? Which skills do my students need for my course? Where can I send them to get those skills? How much instruction will my students need to master the tool I plan to implement? How many students are in my class? How many students have Internet access from home? How often do they access the Internet?
Preliminary Pedagogical Issues II Course content How are online contents going to be related to my class?  Read/comment on something before class. Read/comment on something after class. Read/comment on something in the class. What type of group work is appropriate for my class? What kinds of group projects are appropriate for a web-based (or blended) course?
Preliminary Pedagogical Issues III Student participation Am I going to encourage or require participation in on-line activities?  How often is student participation required? Do activities promote student-to-student interaction? or Do activities only promote student-to-teacher interaction?
Preliminary Pedagogical Issues IV Teacher participation Do I want to spend one class with students showing them how to use the tools? Are the instructions I am providing students clear enough? Are they too long? How often am I realistically going to be able to read student postings? What kind of feedback am I going to give my students?  Am I using the right tool for what I intend to do?
Approaches to Learning Constructivism and social constructivism Vygotsky (1978) Defensive versus expansive learning Grotluschen (2005) Holzkampf (1993) Woodtli (2008) Connectivism Siemens (2004 and many others) Connected learning Downes (see list of publications in his website)
Social constructivism: All cognitive functions originate in, and must therefore be explained as products of, social interactions and [...] learning is not simply the assimilation and accommodation of new knowledge by learners; it is the process by which learners are integrated into a knowledge community.  (Vygotsky, 1997, following  http ://gsi.berkeley.edu/resources/learning/social.html )
Expansiv: Ich lerne, weil ich das zu Lernende als inhaltlich für mich selbst relevant, nützlich oder wissenswert betrachte und um meine Handlungsmöglichkeiten erweitern zu können. (Woodtli, 2008)
Learning is a process that occurs within nebulous environments of shifting core elements – not entirely under the control of the individual. Learning (defined as actionable knowledge) can reside outside of ourselves (within an organization or a database), is focused on connecting specialized information sets, and the connections that enable us to learn more are more important than our current state of knowing.  Siemens (2004)
The knowledge is not in any given individual, but it's a property of the network as a whole.  Downes (2007)

Stages in Moodle Integration - Quizzes and assignments that relate with other previous or follow-up activities (preparation for class, homework, etc.) and that result in a better management of face-to-face interactions. Students contribute with resources and create content via blogs, wikis, etc. Active use of forums. Students contribute with meaningful comments and postings. Students may act as forum moderators. Stage 2: On Track (Student-centred; constructivism)
Stages in Moodle Integration - Combine activities into sequences. Combine online activities with face-to-face interactions. Critical thinking activities Students evaluate learning process formatively and summatively. Stage 3: Going Deeper (Student-centred; constructivism, cognitive)
Stages in Moodle Integration - Peer-review, group learning, project-based group learning. Develop communities of practice. Develop authentic tasks related to the community. Teachers evaluate and reflect on their own teaching. Stage 4: Planning Ahead (social constructivism, connectivism)
