Dynamic Learning with Moodle
Just a few years ago Moodle was an unknown tool. Today, it has become one of the major phenomena at the educational level, as it finds its roots in the philosophy of collaborative learning, often referred to as social constructionist pedagogy. This approach sees learning as a creative social process, as much as it is an individual one, where people learn together by investigating, analyzing, collaborating, sharing, and reflecting.
This course wants to guide you through discovering the tool and learn the best ways in which you can fit it into your educational context.
OBJECTIVES
This course wants to:
-
Raise awareness on the importance of MOODLE and its application in education;
-
Explore and discuss the benefits of MOODLE in all its forms for all users and applications in education;
-
Help participants aknowledge the best way to introducing MOODLE in their school;
-
Go through the moodle software, simulating all the different uses and applications;
-
Observe where MOODLE has been already used and the benefits of it, discussing the matter with local colleagues, who are already into the MOODLE experience.
METHODOLOGY
Our courses, developed in the framework established by the Erasmus+ Programme, are crafted to include both formal and non-formal education methodologies. Starting with a theoretical approach to the theme of the course, we proceed with non-formal learning strategies in order to guarantee and stimulate an active contribution from the participants involved. In practice, we use: Presentations; Analysis of study cases; Discussions in the classroom; Role-plays; Technical visits to local private and public institutions; Conferences with local professionals to exchange good practices; Job shadowing experiences; Workshops to rethink old practices and introduce new ones.
