Listen to middle school students talk about Moodle.
"The Moodle learning environment has allowed our teachers to reach students at different levels and abilities more effectively. Teachers observe that their students are able to cover more material and achieve at higher levels when compared to a more traditional setting. Students have also become more self-directed and engaged in their learning experiences." (Grace Magley, Director of Technology, Millis Public Schools)
"OK- It is 11:40pm right now and I can't get myself to stop with the Moodle module! It is so exciting to think about how this could change the way I teach. It seems like most of us are still in the Stone Age as far as using all the technology out there! This is really making an impact on my thinking as far as how I can teach in the future." (Heidi Dumas, Worcester teacher)
