Communication

New feature
in Moodle 4.3!

If the Experimental setting Enable communication providers (enablecommunicationsubsystem) is checked, admins can offer Matrix rooms or custom links to existing rooms for teachers to use with learners in their courses.

Course settings

• Teachers can access course communication options from Course navigation > More > Communication.
• If the admin has set up a Matrix server for the site, a Matrix room will automatically be created when a new course is created. Teachers can configure the room settings by ensuring Matrix is selected as the provider.
• If desired they can give the room a name and a topic. If they don't give the room a name then the course name is used instead.

• A teacher will automatically have the moderator capability in the Matrix room.

If there is no Matrix server on the site, teachers can add a link to a Matrix room of their own or to a room in another messaging service such as Telegram by selecting Custom link as the provider and adding the relevant URL.

Once saved the room will be available from a 'sticky'icon, present on all pages at the bottom of the screen above the information icon.
