Grambling State University will be upgrading our current version of Moodle from 1.9 to 2. We plan to have ALL courses on Moodle 2 starting the Fall of 2013.

Many Moodle 1.9 skills will transfer easily to Moodle 2, but there are some changes in the layout and a number of functional improvements that you might want to be aware of. Whether you are a Moodle novice or advanced user, we hope you will participate in upcoming Moodle 2 training sessions as well as view demonstration videos located on GSU Distance Learning website. http://www.gram.edu/distance learning/.

The Office of Distance Learning is excited to share with you some of the new and improved features.
