Moodle updates during winter break

LITS will be applying a minor upgrade to Moodle over winter break. This process will begin during the early morning on Monday, January 13, 2025. We do not anticipate any downtime.

Once the upgrade is complete, you may notice small changes in the Moodle interface. These include a redesign of the menu used to select activities and resources (Assignment, Forum, Quiz, etc.) as well as a new drop-down menu instructors can use to control “Group Mode” settings. There will also be small functional changes, the most important of which is a way to directly add new items and categories to your Gradebook. Finally, we will be adding the plugin Moodleoverflow to our site. It allows you to add a Moodleoverflow activity to your course page, which can be used for Q&A-style discussions.

If you have questions or concerns, please email help@brynmawr.edu to contact the Moodle support team.
