Moodle eLearning course design: a flexible approach: open source Learning Management System (LMS) for training organisations

Moodle eLearning Course Design: A Flexible Approach offers an excellent range of course design and administrative approaches to best utilise the Moodle learning management system (LMS) for delivering quality training and assessment. The book is primarily targeted at system/student administrators from Australian Registered training Organisations (RTO) who seek clear and practical examples on Moodle course design that can align with ASQA (Australian Skills Quality Authority) guidelines. Although there is a clear focus on RTOs, the concepts covered in each chapter remain equally relevant and could be adapted within a university context. Highlights noted while reading include the author's ability to present innovative and constructive examples to show off Moodle capabilities well beyond a typical LMS, such as defining, implementing and monitoring the student enrolment work flow model. This process is often handled by dedicated student information systems outside a LMS in larger organisations. It is these types of approaches that can really open up opportunities for RTOs starting out and therefore make Moodle eLearning Course Design: A Flexible Approach a worthwhile read.
