Moodle Course Packages

These course packages are a perfect compliment for instructors who have adopted Gabriel Gurley's paperback instructional guides, or as a standalone learning resource for face-to-face and distance learning instructional environments. Pre-compiled for the open source course management system Moodle, these course packages can be imported and available for instructional use within minutes. And due to the product's generous licensing terms, instructors and institutions can add, delete and customize the lessons, quizzes and supplemental learning materials for delivery to an unlimited number of students.

Features of these packages include: an HTML version of the 10 hands-on lessons as presented in Gabriel Gurley's instructional guides; comprehensive quick reference guides for Writer, Calc, Impress and Base; 10 assignments (1 per lesson) for students to submit for assessing skills development; 10 pre-configured quizzes for use in assessing student progress after each lesson; 3 pre-configured exams for assessing student proficiency throughout the course; a final exam to assess student proficiency at the end of the course; a test bank containing 100 questions where quizzes and exams can be created and customized; the ability to create forums to initiate class discussions on topics related to the course; and the ability to add, delete and customize the lessons, quizzes and supplemental materials due to the product license.

System Requirements: Moodle Course Management System, version 1.9 or later, or compatible.
