Moodle was updated

Posted on by

Moodle was updated during the service break on third January. There were no drastic changes, mostly small improvements to the user experience.

This video (18 minutes) summarizes the most important improvements:

Two things mentioned in the video are note applicable to the UH Moodle installation:

(Starting at 8:50 in the video.) UH Moodle does not have the private files area enabled. File linking is however possible by selecting course files via the Server files repository.

(At 11:40.) UH Moodle will only have the new assignment module available. Old assignments will be converted automatically to the new module during the upgrade. The grading interface has slightly changed; for more information, please read the instructions at Moodle.org.
