This book demystifies Moodle and provides you with answers to your queries.
It helps you create engaging online language learning activities using the
Moodle platform. It has suggestions and fully working examples for adapting
classroom activities to the Virtual Learning Environment.

This book breaks down the core components of a typical language syllabus –
speaking, pronunciation, listening, reading, writing, vocabulary, grammar,
and assessment – and shows you how to use Moodle 1.9 to create complete,
usable activities that practise them. Each chapter starts with activities
that are easier to set up and progresses to more complex ones. Nevertheless,
it's a recipe book so each activity is independent. We start off with a brief
introduction to Moodle so that you're ready to deal with those specific syllabus
topics, and conclude with building extended activities that combine all syllabus
elements, making your course attractive and effective. Building activities based
on the models in this book, you will develop the confidence to set up your own
Moodle site with impressive results.
