Abstract:

Language is an essential tool of communication that contributes to social development. As of today, ground-breaking experience taking place in social interactions and education environment makes students demonstrate higher communicative competence level and sophisticated linguistic skills. Сutting-edge technologies and e-learning platforms are topical issues considered a crucial part of modern educational culture. An example of such platforms is Moodle (Modular Object-Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment) that combines the diversity of education- and methodology-related back-ups and monitors the quality of students’ knowledge, collaboration, achievement and motivation.

It involves a traditional learning approach and a blended learning solution that combines face-to-face lessons with online tutored self-study. The design of educational process and e-learning classes are among Moodle’s comparative advantages.

Moodle involves all the relevant modules featuring education management, communication, follow-up monitoring, educational resources and technical support coordination. Thus, this e-learning platform improves educational experience and enhances its quality relying on multiple learning patterns.

However, Moodle provides more options as technical experts systematically reinforce services and improve the quality of this e-learning platform.

There is evidence to suggest that Moodle is a rather complex system with a variety of settings which tap into the vast demands and needs. A mainstream user of the platform does not have to pick through all its intricacies. The best approach is to be aware of key Moodle features and successfully employ them in practice.
