Moodle is an online learning management system (LMS) that allows for rich interaction between teachers and learners. It will be replacing SharePoint as the new LMS for learning next year. Moodle provides a platform for organizing courses with different activities, resources, and tools to store, communicate, collaborate, and evaluate course content. Teachers will have focus groups to provide input on setting up the new Moodle site and are encouraged to try out the beta version.

Ever seen or played with Legos Imagine Moodle as a platform that comes with a great set of bricks

Moodle can evaluate students using online quizzes and assignments.
Parents will be able access grades of online quizzes and assignments, and they will be able to see feedback from teachers. Students can voice their opinions using surveys and ratings and much more
If your student is sick and misses a couple of days, he or she does not have to fall behind because their courses and assignments will be online!
We can have as many basic bricks as we want.
But we can get many other compatible bricks too such as Google Apps that incorporates email and calendars and will allow students to collaborate together on assignments using Google Docs. A translator can be one of these bricks and all types of neat widgets can be linked into Moodle.
We can arrange the bricks that fit in any way that suits our educational and/or business purpose.
For that reason we have roles such as admin, teacher, student and parent. The parents will be able to see important information such as grades and teacher comments pertaining to their student
Moodle is Robust and Secure, Your children will be save using Moodle. Everything that is done is trackable. Only people with an account can access the site. It is a safe place for your children to go on the Internet because it is created and maintained by their teachers.
Many other international schools are already using Moodle for example the American International Schools of Bankok, Dubai, and Vienna. Universities are also using Moodle UCLA Texas A and M MIT just to name a few
The yellow dots indicate where Moodle is already being used and the number of users keeps growing every year.
