WORKSHOP: Beyond the Basics: Groups and Groupings

Effective learning activities involve group work, and the LMS has extensive opportunities for group activities and group management fulfilling its underpinning social constructivist theoretical base. The Moodle software manages groups through two facets: groups and groupings. In this workshop, participants will investigate the use of groups and groupings within an LMS unit. Participants will create groups and groupings and explore their use and management within the Learning Management System.
