  19. Use of Activities in Moodle Asynchronous online discussions (Forums) • Reflection and analysis via carefully constructed questions • Need guidelines and facilitation to keep the activity focused on the goals/objectives of the lesson (instructor to model at the beginning of the course, and then students can have opportunity to create discussion questions and facilitate) • Feedback in the form of a grade, or as a summary of the discussion topic

  20. Use of Activities in Moodle Case study (Forum, Assignment, Turnitin) • Analysis, synthesis, and application of course content through responses and interaction • Students could post their answers, and then it becomes the basis for an online discussion

  21. Use of Activities in Moodle Group assignment (Wiki, Forum, Assignment, Turnitin) • Small groups construct a solution to a given problem, and demonstrate their understanding through some sort of digital presentation (can be to whole class) Debates (Wiki, Forum, Voice Activity, video upload through Assignment or Forum) • Teams discuss a controversial topic/article in a structured forum, each taking a position • Promotes analysis and synthesis

  22. Use of Activities in Moodle • Self-check activities • A Quiz that is marked by Moodle • A Q & A forum where the students can only see the Instructor’s post/correct answer (and all other students’ answers) after they post their thoughts first • An Assignment where the students can get participation marks for completing it, and then the Instructor can post the answers as a file/document so they can check their own work

  23. Creating Groups

  24. Creating Groups

  25. Groups and Groupings Use Groups in Moodle, to assign a particular activity (or all course activities) to groups of students. Groups can be especially useful for activities where students interact with one another. With forums, wikis, and databases, students in the same group can post and reply only to each other. Each group member always works in their own group, but you can control whether or not they can see contributions of members of other groups. Groupings are a collection of groups, and you can assign activities to specific groupings as needed.

  26. Assignments • Separate students by groups • Use an anti-plagiarism plugin (Turnitin) • Audio files (Poodll plugin) • Restrict access
