4. For too long we’ve encouraged a culture of
assessment, scrolling content, file repositories
and other antiquated online teaching practices.
5. If you have Office 365 or Google
Repositories...Use them!
Microsoft have spent millions of pounds on file
technology, search and sharing.
So why do we insist on using Moodle as a file
dump?
6. Why teachers don’t use Moodle
Time consuming to build content.
Software is difficult to use.
Lack of design skills.
Little or no Return On Investment.
Intellectual Property concerns.
Lack of Training.
Lack of Understanding.
Fear of accountability.

Move away from repository style teaching.
Break down silo based courses.
Adopt new eLearning Trends.
Promote active learners.
Increase adoption and engagement (ETAG).

quizzes, assignments, questionnaires and web

Respond and cultivate the creative instinct of
our learners and tutors and build a learning
platform that is reflective of today.
