Un volume costoso ma innovativo. E' indicato a coloro che vogliono capire quali strumenti utilizzare per realizzare corsi online sulla piattaforma #Moodle già installata.
Ripeto, nessun accenno alla parte di database e sistema operativo.
Si compone di otto capitoli che guidano nell'apprendimento delle ricchissime funzioni di Moodle 3.0 e consigliano quali strumenti sfruttare per raggiungere l'obbiettivo grazie all'apprendimento collaborativo.
