The platform also integrates with other tools and systems, such as Google Apps and plagiarism detection software, to provide a seamless learning experience.

    Moodle is widely used in educational institutions, including universities, K-12 schools, and corporate training programs. It is well-suited to online and blended learning environments and distance education programs. Additionally, Moodle's accessibility features make it a popular choice for learners with disabilities, ensuring that courses are inclusive and accessible to all learners.

    The Moodle community is an active group of users, developers, and educators who contribute to the platform's development and improvement.

Beyond Slides: Rethinking How We Teach Open Science

This self-paced, project-based mini-course is designed for Open Science trainers who are experts in their field but have had little to no formal training in pedagogy or instructional design. Many rely on traditional lecture-style formats and slide-based presentations when delivering trainings. However, there is a range of practical, learner-centred methods that can make training more engaging and effective. Rather than focusing on educational theory, this mini-course introduces actionable instructional design concepts, including student-centred learning, active engagement strategies, and gamification. Over four weeks, participants will progressively design or revise one of their own training activities. The course supports reflection on whether and how more engaging, learner-focused approaches can be applied in their specific context, helping them make informed decisions to enhance their training practice.
