This document discusses using Moodle to create PAL (Personalised Active Learning) packs. PAL packs contain resources, activities, and assessments to allow for personalized and differentiated learning. They are structured with instructions, learning objectives, content from sources like OER and videos, learning activities like forums and wikis, and assessments like quizzes or assignments. Examples of existing PAL packs are provided in topics like health and safety, psychology, and marketing. Support is available from the ILT team to help build packs and find resources. The benefits of PAL packs include flexible learning, catering to different learning styles, engagement, and learning independence.
