WHAT IS MOODLE?

Miguel Guhlin - http://www.mguhlin.org

Moodle is a free, online Web 2.0 tool that teachers can use to transform their curriculums through the easy creation of

online content.

If you cannot use a lot of the tools that you see presented in

workshops due to filtering policies, then Moodle will help to safely overcome those restrictions.
