Student Support
About Moodle
Moodle is a web-based environment which provides a range of tools to support your studies online. These tools allow lecturers to provide access to teaching material and support resources such as reading lists, online articles, audio and video clips etc, support communication and collaboration between students and staff through the use of discussion boards and chat rooms, and enable you to be assessed online, either via multiple choice quizzes or by letting you submit coursework online.
Moodle is based on individual course areas, where each course area relates to an individual unit, programme of study or Faculty. It is used widely across the University and your lecturers will advise you of the ways in which they expect you to utilise Moodle to support your studies as different lecturers will use it in different ways.
