Moodle is a leading open source e-learning management system. With Moodle, teachers and professors can easily construct richly textured web-based courses. A course can consist of a number of lessons. Each lesson consists of reading materials; activities such as quizzes, tests, surveys, and projects; and social elements that encourage interaction and group work among students.

This book shows you how to use Moodle as a tool to enhance your teaching. It will help you analyze your students' requirements and come to an understanding of what Moodle can do for them.
