Moodle

=What is Moodle?=

Moodle stands for **M**odular **O**bject **O**rientated **D**ynamic **L**earning **E**nvironment. In other words, it is an online course management system. It can be used for DL (Distance Learning) or Blended learning (mix of face to face and DL). The other LMS available in the district is Blackboard.

How do I access my Moodle account?
School District 62 has a Moodle site for SD62 teachers. Click here to access it. Use your district username and password to access this site (i.e. the username and password you use to sign onto a school computer). To set up a class in Moodle, you need to email Steve Tonnesen requesting a Moodle account. Please include which class (specifically) you want added so he can import the students for you from BCeSIS data.

How to Enroll Students

Have students sign into Moodle using their district username and password (what they use to sign on to a district computer). 3. Have them find their course (go to All Courses and search for their school and then their specific course). 4. When they click on the course they will be asked to enter the password you have provided them with. Once they have done this, they will have been enrolled in the course.
