Overall Satisfaction with Moodlerooms
Moodlerooms is used in our school and in our program as a way to incorporate blended learning into the classroom for students. The best way to use this tool is to place students in specific classes and rooms to be able to control and manage assignments, conversation, and workload. We use this across our entire department of 5 teachers in the organization and other teachers integrate it on their own. However, our entire department has adopted utilizing this platform in some way, shape or form. This addresses the major problem of needing to be able to organize students into specific sections to control communication, promote conversation and inclusion, and to focus on online learning. Face to face education is supported by the online Moodlerooms platform.
- Something that Moddlerooms does very well is that it allows teachers to structure their online classroom as one focused curriculum.
- Moodlerooms also allows for customization of the layout. Being able to add and remove certain functions that Moodlerooms can perform definitely helps.
- Moodlerooms is able to add different types of activities to the rooms for increased interaction.
- Moodlerooms provides large chat opportunities to all students that are online at the same time.
- Easier to change permissions.
- Adding the ability to tweet.
- Decrease bandwidth to improve back end loading times.
- Moodlerooms has given classes of mine a positive ROI because it improves the educational experience for all students. It has helped all of our students, and with this, we can even help students who can not get to the classroom for some reason.
- It helps to improve student scores, GPAs, and college attendance.
- The positive impact can be directly correlated with the improvement of grades for students. Being able to access work in person and via Moodlerooms helps students to learn anywhere and any time. Grades have improved, and that is due to Moodlerooms.
I would select Moodlerooms over many competitors as a result of what it offers in terms of functionality and control. Google classrooms has a definite place in education; however, Moodlerooms provides significantly more control for authors. As the owner and manager of the content, and as someone familiar with technology, I can incorporate a lot more functions and create different layouts with functionality boxes.
