CODeL has made the Moodle Learning Management System (LMS) as its Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) of choice to support student virtual learning. Moodle LMS is based on the socio-cultural learning philosophy and social constructionism that emphasises collaborative learning by enhancing social interaction and active learning by supporting the creation of learning artefacts. This supports student-centred, collaborative and self-directed learning approaches.
The Virtual Learning environment is a composite of various pedagogical tools, some of which are listed below:
- Moodle LMS
- Course authoring (Xerte)
- Plagiarism detection (Urkund)
- Lecture recording
- Live lecture delivery (BlueButton)
- ePortfolio (Mahara)
