About Moodle

Why is the opening sentence stating only two uses of Moodle? What about using it to support classroom teaching and training, blended learning, distance learning, just to mention a few other areas? user:Robert Brenstein March 2008

Introduction to Moodle

I would like to change this page to actually show the Introduction and move the Moodle Advocacy to a new page Advocacy. The first time I visited this page I expected to be able to read something about Moodle and I competely missed the menu at the top. The menu at the top could stay and could be repeated on each of the pages. If I hear no objections in a day or so I will make the change. --Gustav Delius 02:29, 28 January 2006 (WST)

Yes please - go for it! Perhaps the menu could become a navigation template? -- Helen Foster 02:35, 28 January 2006 (WST)
Echo - the Menu may need go through a period of natural evolution before making it a template. A few more categories might come to mind. Having navigation can become convoluted if the basic form is still developing. I feel it will be essential. Mark Burnet

Please, add Presentations and Moodle manuals to this pages, I think they should be here David Delgado 14:00, 7 February 2006 (GMT)

The manuals are for teachers and students, rather than being general information about Moodle. Also, some require updating. --Helen Foster 00:21, 14 February 2006 (WST)

The discussion of the GNU licenses should change slightly because it implies that one needs to share source code of all of your modifications. In fact, you only need to give source code to modifications that you make to copies of Moodle that you distribute to others.
