Learning Management System (LMS)

Request to add users to Moodle; create a department or group site, only;
All requests must be submitted through the online form available at http://web.gcc.mass.edu/it/moodle-request-forms/
Meta Courses in Moodle links students from multiple sections into a parent course. The parent course is where the course content is stored and all course interaction occurs. IT needs to create the meta course and link the multiple sections to this course. The sections are unavailable to students. For large classes, it is recommended faculty create groups for each of the sections linked to a meta course. Groups allow for easy management of the discussions.
