Overview

Overview

Moodle LMS is an open-source learning management system for creating courses, delivering resources and activities, collecting assignments, running quizzes, grading work, discussion, communication, and tracking completion. Districts may self-host it, use a Moodle Certified Service Provider, or obtain it through another hosting arrangement.

Its extensible plugin ecosystem and control over hosting can make Moodle highly adaptable, but districts must plan for configuration, upgrades, security, backups, accessibility review, support, and integration ownership. The actual experience and operating burden depend heavily on the chosen deployment and local administration.
