MoodleMoot

A MoodleMoot is a gathering to discuss and learn about Moodle. They take place all over the world and tend to be face to face conferences. Sometimes they are limited to a particular user group (for example, a school district) others are open to the entire worldwide Moodle community.

Moodlemoot.org site

This site also posts announcements, has helpful MoodleMoot resources and can serve as a Moodle site specifically for a MoodleMoot.

Origin of name

The name is another example of Moodle humor, because participants at these gatherings are anything but "moot".

Actually, no, 'moot' is an old Anglo-Saxon word for meeting, and was chosen because Sean Keogh, who organised the first ever Moodle conference, is a Lord of the Rings fan. See http://moodlemoot.org/mod/resource/view.php?id=11 for the background.--Tim Hunt 08:54, 11 September 2007 (CDT)
