Esta página es el punto de inicio para que Usted conozca nuestros planes para las versiones futuras de Moodle. Debajo hallará información sobre las características que actualmente están en progreso y aquellas que están siendo planeadas para versiones futuras.

Contribuciones al plan de desarrollo

Las propuestas para mejoras y nuevas características son originadas de una variedad de orígenes. La retroalimentación de nuestra comunidad es muy importante y Usted puede acercarse a nosotros al crear nuevos asuntos en el tracker, unirse a la Asociación de Usuarios de Moodle (Moodle User Association) para votar por un nuevo proyecto para cada versión, discutir sus ideas en los foros de Moodle, y reunirse con nosotros en persona en alguno de nuestros MoodleMoots!

Moodle 3.6: principales características nuevas

Introducidas para Moodle 3.6:

1. Mejoras a la página de Vista General del Curso y al Tablero. En particular la habilidad para manejar un número grande de cursos y actividades. Incluyendo nuevos bloques con fácil acceso a las actividades y los cursos más visitados recientemente, la habilidad para marcar cursos como favoritos y ocultos, habilidad para cargar más cursos en una página y proporcionar un bloque separado de línea de tiempo.
2. Introducción a mensajería grupal. The ability to enable group messaging for a course or any other group formed by the teacher. In line with our focus on protecting privacy, users will be given greater control over who is able to message them.
3. Características adicionales de privacidad. This continues on from the privacy features implemented in Moodle 3.5 for the European data privacy regulations: GDPR. The enhancements include a more human friendly readable format of the data export, ability to perform an erasure request on previously (prior to Moodle 3.5) deleted users, improved control over the purpose and retention period for different types of activity modules, and more!
4. Mejoras a las herramientas analíticas del examen. This is a project selected by the Moodle User Association (MUA) to simplify the way response statistics for random question pools are displayed. Further information can be found on the MUA page and in the tracker.
5. Adición de soporte para archivos y medios para retroalimentación de tarea. This allows teachers to upload files and media when providing students with feedback on their work.
6. Mejoras a la accesibilidad. Inclusiveness for people with disabilities is the driver for this project and the work in this area is focused on improving accessibility of the Boost theme and Forum.

Moodle 3.7: planeación en progreso

For Moodle 3.7 we are working on the following major features and improvements:

1. Forum update: including back-end refactor, accessibility, in-page reply, star/favouriting of a discussion, manually locking a discussion, sorting of discussions, private reply. This is a project run in collaboration with the MUA.
2. Deprecating bootstrapbase (and clean/more) and introducing the new Classic theme in core. The Classic theme will retain a navigation block similar to the one in Clean. With the introduction of Bootstrap 4 final for Moodle 3.5 we are now focused on further improving the Boost theme. As discussed on the forum we have retained Bootstrapbase and the Clean theme for Moodle 3.6, but are removing them for Moodle 3.7. Supporting multiple frameworks and themes increases our development and testing efforts as all new features require development and testing across the different themes. In turn this means that less time is available to work on new features, bugs, and other user-facing functionality. In the long term this is not sustainable and also not beneficial. This will allow us to focus our efforts on improving the core theme and ultimately serving our users better.
3. Support for LTI 1.3 will be included in Moodle 3.7. Moodle is one of the early adopters of this standard. Consumer side has been implemented and we're scoping the provider side of this for future work.
4. We are also further enhancing our support for Open Badges v2 and adding support for the Badgr.io backpack.
5. Learning analytics improvements: main items - create, import, export and delete models, collect learning analytics usage data in site registration, upcoming activities due insight.
6. Group messaging follow-ups; various improvements including muting of conversations, an email digest of group messages, ability for teacher to delete group messages for all users, a personal space where you can keep useful messages and links, and more.
7. Accessibility improvements: we're continuing to improve overall accessibility of Moodle. Some of this is related to the forum project, accessibility of Boost and general accessibility improvements.

Moodle 3.8 and beyond: planning in progress

The following features and improvements are being considered for inclusion in Moodle 3.8 and subsequent versions. Please note that the potential projects below are being reviewed and the final list of major features for 3.8 may deviate from this.

1. Further enhancements of Forum: being able to respond to posts with emotes, marking posts as substantive, anonymous posts, student activity reports, exporting of forum content - these features still require further scoping. This is a project run in collaboration with the MUA.
2. Activity dates relative to student enrolment dates. Refer also to MDL-61209. Note that this is a large project and is likely to be split over two Moodle releases.
3. Improvements and new features for Learning Analytics.
4. Improved H5P integration.
5. Improved Safe Exam Browser integration.
6. Usability overhaul for Activity Chooser.
7. Navigation improvements.
8. Continued Accessibility improvements and adherence to additional open educational standards for interoperability.
9. Integration of StudentQuiz.

Moodle releases

See our Releases page for information about past releases. After Moodle 2.0 we switched to time-based releases rather than feature-based releases (see our development process). Because of this, the details above on future releases are an indication of current priorities only, and are targeted to be released in the upcoming releases. Anything not ready by the next release date will generally be pushed to the following major release.

General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

The EU data protection regulation came into effect on 25 May 2018 and all organisations in the EU, as well as those outside the EU that store data of EU citizens, have to comply. Moodle 3.5 introduced features that assist these organisations to become GDPR compliant. These features focus on functionality to:

• Provide additional privacy information during user sign up, as well as more extensive recording and logging of user consents
• Provide additional means for users to obtain a copy or their data, invoke their right to data erasure and keeping track of all types of data within Moodle in a data registry

Further data privacy enhancements were developed for Moodle 3.6:

• Additional privacy features. The enhancements include a more human friendly readable format of the data export, ability to perform an erasure request on previously (prior to Moodle 3.5) deleted users, improved control over the purpose and retention period for different types of activity modules, and more!
