This document summarises, for a broad audience, the best current plans on the future technical development of the Moodle’s open source learning platform, consisting of Moodle LMS, Moodle Workplace LMS, MoodleCloud, MoodleNet, Moodle Apps, and Moodle Educator Certificates.


This page is your starting point for learning about our plans for upcoming releases of Moodle.  Below you will find information on the features that are currently in progress and those being planned for future releases.
We publish Roadmap updates such as this one every quarter.

==Moodle 3.6: major new features==
Our Roadmap is built via our [[Roadmap process]]. This process is continuously evolving but it always seeks to involve all our key stakeholders - students, teachers, admins, institutions, and of course our partners and supporters.
Introduced for Moodle 3.6:
 
# [https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-62870 Improvements to the Dashboard and Course Overview page]. In particular the ability to handle large numbers of courses and activities.  Including new blocks with easy access to the most recently visited courses and activities, ability to favourite and hide courses, ability to load more courses onto one page and providing a separate timeline block.
= The big picture =
# [https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-57272 Introduction of group messaging]. 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.
 
# [https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-62331 Additional privacy features].  This continues on from the privacy features implemented in Moodle 3.5 for the European data privacy regulations: [https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection_en 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!
Working on the Moodle learning platform involves millions of moving parts, and every release generally includes hundreds of improvements.  However, there are '''four main goals''' that we are focussing on for the next two years:
# '''Improvements to Quiz analytical tools'''. 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 [https://moodleassociation.org/mod/page/view.php?id=548 MUA page] and in the [https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MUA-33 tracker].
# [https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-27520 Adding file and media support for assignment feedback]. This allows teachers to upload files and media when providing students with feedback on their work.
# '''Accessibility improvements'''. Inclusiveness for people with disabilities is the driver for this project and the work in this area is focused on improving accessibility of the [https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-62476 Boost theme] and [https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-62475 Forum].


==Moodle 3.7: major new features==
=== User experience and flow ===
Moodle 3.7 includes the following major features and improvements:


# [https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-64547 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 [https://moodleassociation.org/ MUA].
The entire user experience from onboarding, into daily teaching/learning and expert customisation of Moodle is the core value of what makes Moodle useful or not in the real world, in fully online and blended modes.
# [https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-58427 Deprecating bootstrapbase] (and clean/more) and introducing the new [https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-63075 Classic theme] in core. The Classic theme has 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 [https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=373899#p1510580 forum] we have retained Bootstrapbase and the Clean theme for Moodle 3.6, but they have been removed 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.
# Support for [https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-62599 LTI 1.3] is 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.
# We have further enhanced our support for Open Badges v2 and added support for the [https://badgr.com/ Badgr.io] backpack.
# Learning analytics improvements: main items - [https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-64775 create, import, export and delete models], [https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-64477 collect learning analytics usage data in site registration], [https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-64781 upcoming activities due insight].
# [https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-64341 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.
# Moodle '''Accessibility improvements'''. Some of this is related to the [https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-62475 forum project], [https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-62476 accessibility of Boost] and [https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-64487 general accessibility improvements].


==Moodle 3.8 and beyond: in progress==
While we’re working on hundreds of smaller, annoying issues, we are also doing some major re-thinking around what an LMS should be in the next decade and beyond as a tool to empower educators and learners.
The following features and improvements are being worked on for inclusion in Moodle 3.8 and subsequent versions. Some of these projects are large and following an initial investigation and scoping effort are likely to be split over two Moodle releases.


# Further enhancements of '''Forum''', with for Moodle 3.8: ability to grade forum activity, student activity reports, exporting of forum content - and a new forum look and feel. This is a project run in collaboration with the [https://moodleassociation.org/ MUA].
=== Enabling all our developers ===
# Improved '''H5P integration'''.
# Usability overhaul for '''Activity Chooser'''.
# '''Activity dates relative to student enrolment dates'''. Refer also to MDL-61209.
# Improvements and new features for '''Learning Analytics'''.


Other projects that are currently being considered are:
Our significant community of engaged developers are an amazing group of over 1000 people - many of them make a living being part of the Moodle community.
# '''Accessibility''' improvements, and
# Improved '''Safe Exam Browser''' integration.


For the next few releases we also intend to increase our focus on improving the key Moodle features and activities. The Forum project and Activity Chooser overhaul are examples of this. More details on this will follow.
We are of course working on ways to make Moodle programming easier and better, with better training and support as well as improved APIs, plugins, integrations and support for modern technologies.


==Moodle 3.8 Dates==
However, a particularly exciting initiative is the new Moodle Plugins Service, due in 2021, which will provide an “app store” experience on which all developers can build financial sustainability for their work, while teachers will have easier access to use hundreds of new plugins in their courses via the web interface, without needing to convince their admins to install code. This will help the entire plugins ecosystem.
* Code freeze (no new features accepted): '''7th October 2019'''
* QA cycle (start of QA testing): '''14th October 2019'''
* Release date (once QA passed): '''11th November 2019'''


==Moodle 3.9 (LTS) Dates==
===Better integrations between Moodle products===
* Code freeze (no new features accepted): '''6th April 2020'''
* QA cycle (start of QA testing): '''13th April 2020'''
* Release date (once QA passed): '''11th May 2020'''


==Moodle releases==
The current Moodle products already integrate with each other, of course, but there is much more to be done to make them work together more seamlessly, as part of one platform, so that our users have a better experience and also so that they become more aware of solutions to their problems.
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 [https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Process 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.
=== Better integration with the world ===
 
Moodle is never used alone, and it is a part of many ecosystems at many levels. We must connect to all kinds of other systems, we must of course comply with new legislation such as the GDPR, Accessibility and much more.
 
In particular though, we are committed to helping to promote [https://openedtech.global/ <span class="underline">Open EdTech</span>] and to work closely with qualified Open EdTech products and major stakeholders to design and build an open architecture for a long-term future.

== Notes on the Moodle LMS releases ==
 
===Moodle 4.0 in November 2021 ===
 
For our very large new releases such as 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 and now 4.0, we often take longer so that we can tackle more significant chunks of important core work, giving us the opportunity sometimes to make more serious changes to UX or architecture. Moodle 4.0 will focus on UX improvements.
 
As part of a significant UX and design change, the current focus is on three main UX projects:
* [[Moodle_4.0_navigation_improvements|Improved navigation]], search and menus - MDL-69588
* Making it easier to create and manage courses
* Making it easier for students to know what they need to do to complete a course, and know what’s next
 
Other projects include:
* LTI 1.3 Advantage Tool / Provider implementation - MDL-69542
* BigBlueButton integration - MDL-70658
* a community proposal for the question bank being discussed and shaped by a consortium of universities - [[Question bank improvements for Moodle 4.0]].
 
=== Moodle 3.11===
In 2021 the majority of HQ developers will be focused on the UX improvements that are scheduled for Moodle 4.0. This means that the Moodle 3.11 release is anticipated to contain mostly community contributed improvements and a couple smaller HQ developments.
 
Note that while we will endeavour to include all community contributions in the 3.11 release, we may defer some improvements to a later release depending on the complexity, size, and impact on other scheduled work.
 
Scheduled projects for Moodle 3.11 are:
* [[Student activity completion]] (MUA) - MDL-70469
* Open Badges v2.1 (Badge Connect API) - MDL-71117
* Brickfield accessibility toolkit integration - MDL-71041
 
===Moodle 3.10 ===
 
Moodle 3.10 was released in November 2020. Please see the [https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Moodle_3.10_release_notes release notes] for an overview of all the improvements and new features.
 
=== Moodle 3.9 ===
 
Moodle 3.9 was released in June 2020. Please see the [[Moodle_3.9_release_notes|release notes]] for an overview of all the improvements and new features.

Last Updated: 15 July 2020 Q3



Introduction

The Moodle Project is designed to have a positive effect on the world by supporting and empowering the educators who are teaching students in all sectors, in all countries.

To do this, our team at Moodle HQ looks to the world, talks with our community, and creates solutions in the forms of products that fit our values of education, openness, respect, integrity and innovation.

This document summarises, for a broad audience, the best current plans on the future technical development of the Moodle’s open source learning platform, consisting of Moodle LMS, Moodle Workplace LMS, MoodleCloud, MoodleNet, Moodle Apps, and Moodle Educator Certificates.

We publish Roadmap updates such as this one every quarter.


Where this roadmap comes from

Proposals for improvements and new features come from a variety of different places.

Feedback from the community is extremely important and you can reach us by

Moodle also has an extensive network of Moodle Partners. Moodle Partners are service providers that are certified by Moodle HQ to provide high quality Moodle services for schools, institutions and organisations. We work closely with our partners to determine the needs of Moodle Users and improve the platform.

Our Roadmap is built via our Roadmap process. This process is continuously evolving but it always seeks to involve all our key stakeholders - students, teachers, admins, institutions, and of course our partners and supporters.

The big picture

Working on the Moodle learning platform involves millions of moving parts, and every release generally includes hundreds of improvements. However, there are four main goals that we are focussing on for the next two years:

User experience and flow

The entire user experience from onboarding, into daily teaching/learning and expert customisation of Moodle is the core value of what makes Moodle useful or not in the real world, in fully online and blended modes.

While we’re working on hundreds of smaller, annoying issues, we are also doing some major re-thinking around what an LMS should be in the next decade and beyond as a tool to empower educators and learners.

Enabling all our developers

Our significant community of engaged developers are an amazing group of over 1000 people - many of them make a living being part of the Moodle community.

We are of course working on ways to make Moodle programming easier and better, with better training and support as well as improved APIs, plugins, integrations and support for modern technologies.

However, a particularly exciting initiative is the new Moodle Plugins Service, due in 2021, which will provide an “app store” experience on which all developers can build financial sustainability for their work, while teachers will have easier access to use hundreds of new plugins in their courses via the web interface, without needing to convince their admins to install code. This will help the entire plugins ecosystem.

Better integrations between Moodle products

The current Moodle products already integrate with each other, of course, but there is much more to be done to make them work together more seamlessly, as part of one platform, so that our users have a better experience and also so that they become more aware of solutions to their problems.

Better integration with the world

Moodle is never used alone, and it is a part of many ecosystems at many levels. We must connect to all kinds of other systems, we must of course comply with new legislation such as the GDPR, Accessibility and much more.

In particular though, we are committed to helping to promote Open EdTech and to work closely with qualified Open EdTech products and major stakeholders to design and build an open architecture for a long-term future.

Notes on the Moodle LMS releases

Moodle 4.0 in November 2021

For our very large new releases such as 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 and now 4.0, we often take longer so that we can tackle more significant chunks of important core work, giving us the opportunity sometimes to make more serious changes to UX or architecture. Moodle 4.0 will focus on UX improvements.

As part of a significant UX and design change, the current focus is on three main UX projects:

  • Improved navigation, search and menus - MDL-69588
  • Making it easier to create and manage courses
  • Making it easier for students to know what they need to do to complete a course, and know what’s next

Other projects include:

Moodle 3.11

In 2021 the majority of HQ developers will be focused on the UX improvements that are scheduled for Moodle 4.0. This means that the Moodle 3.11 release is anticipated to contain mostly community contributed improvements and a couple smaller HQ developments.

Note that while we will endeavour to include all community contributions in the 3.11 release, we may defer some improvements to a later release depending on the complexity, size, and impact on other scheduled work.

Scheduled projects for Moodle 3.11 are:

Moodle 3.10

Moodle 3.10 was released in November 2020. Please see the release notes for an overview of all the improvements and new features.

Moodle 3.9

Moodle 3.9 was released in June 2020. Please see the release notes for an overview of all the improvements and new features.

Note that Moodle 3.9.x (LTS) is the last version actively supporting Internet Explorer 11. Moodle 3.10 (released in November 2020) does NOT support Internet Explorer 11.

Release support timeframes

Version (Scheduled) Release date Full support period ends Security support period ends
Moodle 3.9 (LTS) 15 June 2020 10 May 2021 8 May 2023
Moodle 3.10 November 2020 November 2021 May 2022
Moodle 3.11 May 2021 May 2022 November 2022
Moodle 4.0 November 2021 November 2022 May 2023
Moodle 4.1 (LTS) May 2022 May 2023 May 2025

Past 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.
