Moodle 3 E-Learning Course Development guides you through meeting that challenge in a practical way.

This latest edition will show you how to add static learning material, assessments, and social features such as forum-based instructional strategy, a chat module, and forums to your courses so that students reach their learning potential. Whether you want to

support traditional class teaching or lecturing, or provide complete online and distance

e-learning courses, this book will prove to be a powerful resource throughout

your use of Moodle.
