We will upgrading our Moodle site to 3.8 on August 6. This page highlights some of the updates and tools included in Moodle 3.8.
The Discussion Forum has been updated to allow for forum grading, in addition to the ratings option. Forums will also include a summary report that can be used to view student activity in the forums on the number of replies sent, posts created, and other data.
H5P is now integrated with Moodle. You may not see a big difference in the way the H5P activity looks, but it should resolve some of the glitches we have experienced in using this tool.
Two new learner analytics have been added that allow instructors to easily identify and contact students that have not accessed the course. This includes an Analytics Insight report.
Moodle 3.8 includes more emoji support. These can be used in messaging and text editors.
New calendar filters allow you to filter your course calendar by month, day or upcoming event.
Moodle will now provide alert message before your Moodle session times out.
