Moodle is the Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) used at the University of Bath. It is essentially a website that facilitates the delivery of content and activities to students, through the provision of a range of built in tools and functions. It can be accessed at http://moodle.bath.ac.uk

The Moodle Support Hub hosts a range of (mainly Teacher focused) Moodle-related support material, much of which has been created in house by the e-Learning team. It contains:

• a large number of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
• screencasts and downloadable How To Guides (for staff and students) 
• information on staff development opportunities.

The structure is relatively simple. You can either search through the options on the navigation bar, or let the search engine search for keywords. All material relates to our current version, Moodle 2.2.6.

First Look: Moodle 2.2 - Watch the Panopto recording to find out what's new in the latest version of Moodle.

Moodle 2.2 Familiarisation Seminar - Over the course of an hour, participants will be given an overview of the upgrade to Moodle 2.2, and guided through the range of existing and new Moodle features, building a course based around a set of scenarios. Sign up!

To arrange individual, departmental, faculty or team specific training, please contact the e-Learning team at e-learning@bath.ac.uk.

Don't forget! The fastest way to get a Moodle query-related response from a member of the e-Learning team is by sending an email to e-learning@bath.ac.uk.

Please note that you may receive a slower response to emails sent to individual team members' email addresses due to individual commitments or absences. 

Students with queries should report them to the relevant Moodle course owner who can then liaise with the team to resolve any issues that they cannot respond to. Regrettably we are not resourced to take student queries directly.

There are a number of ways that students can be added to a Moodle course, and their method of enrolment will determine whether or not they will be removed automatically at the end of the academic period. The vast majority of students are enrolled through the SAMIS Integration.
