Moodle (Virtual Learning Environment)

What is Moodle?

Moodle is a virtual learning environment; it is both the campus and the classroom, designed to enhance your learning experience and help you through your studies. It is a state of the art online learning platform to allow your studies to fit around your lifestyle.

A Place to Interact and Learn

Moodle not only gives you consistent access to valuable course material but it is also the platform to interact with your tutor, programme coordinator as well as other students who are studying the same module/course as you. Through the internet students have 24/7 access to course material including case studies, reading material, slides, discussion with the tutor remarks, chat, forum discussion and one to one dialogue. This is done a very user friendly online area.

You can use the online calendar to keep a constant check on the deadlines and other important dates.
