Webanywhere, Europe's Largest Moodle Partner, presents at Learning Technologies 2012
Webanywhere, Europe's largest Moodle Partner with over 3,000 clients globally will be at Stand 14 presenting how Moodle can leverage business training budgets, enabling learners to achieve more whilst using the latest technologies such as mobile learning with the latest Moodle 2.x.release.
Moodle is an increasingly familiar application in business e-learning - thanks to the fact that it's a low cost, low risk open source app with no per-user charges or annual licensing fees. However, the benefits of using the services of an authorised Moodle Partner may be less obvious.
- Moodle Partners are a group of experienced, highly qualified professionals who are passionate about providing best-in-class Moodle services to users of Moodle LMS software, ranging from basic technical support to the development and implementation of enterprise wide learning solutions. The benefits include access to unique expertise in custom configuration, creative design themes, training and ongoing support. This means the core 'out of the box' Moodle software can be tailored to meet the specific requirements of the ever-increasing demand for Moodle services from business users.
- In particular, authorised Moodle Partnership indicates that providers are dedicated to a particular vision of supporting Moodle now while developing it further with common goals. All Moodle Partners contribute directly to the ongoing development of Moodle software via funding or expertise, and play an active role in the development of new functionality or 'next generation' apps. For example, Moodle recently introduced support for dedicated web services and the introduction of an android mobile app - based on the existing Moodle iPhone app - is imminent.
- The design and development of Moodle is guided by a "social constructionist pedagogy". In short, this means that focus is on the experiences that would be best for learning from the learner's point of view, rather than just 'top down' publishing and assessing the information you think they need to know. Moodle doesn't force this style of behaviour, but this is what the designers believe that it is best at supporting.
In short, using a Moodle Partner at the outset of the Moodle e-learning project is essential to getting an LMS project 'right first time'.
