Lesson samples

The purpose of this page is to provide links to different kinds of demonstration lessons. The link maybe to an actual online Moodle lesson and/or a backup file that can be restored to another Moodle.

Some examples may not be complete Lessons, just examples of one or more techniques.

Overview lesson

• Version: Ported into Moodle 1.9 (Actual course last updated September 2006)
• Description: The link below goes to a backup of a course that includes Lesson demonstration initally created for 1.4 and ported into this 1.7 version.
• Location backup file(size): features demo backup here(1.6 MB)
• Location demo: Student only demo here
• Comment: After downloading this course, you should notice that there is a mistake in the lesson. It is carefully broken into parts with a branch table. However the second slide in is a start cluster page with a random jump associated with it. This makes a confusing presentation to a student.

Lesson demo.moodle

• Version: Moodle 1.9, initially written for 1.5 (prior to September 2006)
• Description: Section 7 contains a Lesson that introduces some basic concepts.
• Location backup file (size): Entire demo Moodle course backup. Or go to demo.moodle course log on as Admin and use (1.6 Mg as zip)
• Location demo: Log on as admin, student or teacher

Draft new Lesson demo example

• Version: Created in Moodle 1.9 (Dec 2007)
• Description: A backup course file that only contains 4 Lessons
• Location backup file (size): Tracker issue MDLSITE-304 (1.8 Mg). Select most recent upload (backup-demol_2-20071221-1031.zip was created on 21 Dec 2007).
• Location demo: There is no external link. Course has look and feel of demo.moodle.org course
• Comment:Located in a course that only contains a Topic #7. Purpose of this lesson is to demonstrate many features with simple examples, which will allow a foundation for a teacher to edit. Lesson 1 is the Basics, similar to current demo. Lesson 2 has an example of each question type. Lesson 3 presents advanced clusters and end of branch examples. Lesson 4 is a brief Flash Card type lesson. Course contains all files used in the 2006 demo, plus a few new ones used just in the Lesson.
