Moodle 4.0

Moodle 4.0 aims to make it easier for learners to focus on their learning and have provided several new features to support this:

Intuitive tabbed navigation

A great new feature of Moodle 4.0 is the intuitive tabbed navigation. It allows users to view all their learning content at a glance and navigate at a click of a button. This also allows any pending activities and tasks to be viewed quickly.

Less scrolling, more learning

More collapsing or expanding areas on the course page which will allow users to minimise the amount of learning content on their screens. This will help aid concentration and allow focus on smaller, bite-sized information at any one time.

Reduce distractions

Users can collapse block areas to reduce page and focus on content to support them in the way they like to learn online. The blocks can be retrieved again, at any time when additional information is needed.

Moodle 4.0 hopes to aid in increasing efficiency for educators when it comes to managing their learners by:

Managing and prioritising deadlines

Educators will be able to plan and schedule their work in the Calendar along with viewing deadlines in the dashboard for all their courses.

View all courses in one place

Users will be able to sort and view all their courses on the new 'My Course' page and will be able to easily pop in and out of their courses access what they need.

Stay on top of course requirements

Keeping on track with course requirements and meeting course deadlines will be much easier as everything will be accessible at a glance. Users will know when to complete an activity, what has been done and what needs to be worked on next.

Moodle 4.0 will make it easier for educators to train and edit their courses creating a great learning experience for all.

Organise content in seconds

Option to drag and drop sections and activities on your course. Able to view course at a glance to gain an overview of learning content.

Add engagement to your course with video conferencing

Create breakout rooms and chat, share audio, notes, video and slides and interact in real time. Obtain analytics on user participation and sessions.

Mobile and app alerts

Keep your learners updated of changes to their courses with emails and app alerts.

Learning for all

Ensuring that everyone can learn via enhanced accessibility for screen readers, including keyboard navigation in Moodle's text editor.

Having the option to build custom reports tailored for educators and their learners needs will aid support in making those informed decisions. Options such as a drag and drop interface and sharing and scheduling reports with colleagues are all part of what can be found on Moodle 4.0.
