Moodle is a free and open source PHP web application for preparing and delivering modular internet-based courses. Moodle was originally developed by Martin Dougiamas to help educators create online courses with a focus on interaction and collaborative construction of content, and is in continual evolution. The first version of Moodle was released on 20 August 2002.

Martin Dougiamas (born August 1969), lives in Perth, Australia and is an educator and computer scientist with postgraduate degrees in Computer Science and Education. His work has made a significant impact on the implementation of constructivist models of teaching and learning online with Moodle. Dougiamas's PhD thesis is entitled "The use of Open Source software to support a social constructionist epistemology of teaching and learning within Internet-based communities of reflective inquiry".

Moodle has several features considered typical of an e-learning platform, plus some original innovations (like its filtering system).


 * 1) Student Registration
 * 2) Assigning teachers to students/student groups
 * 3) Tracking of student activities
 * 4) Content creation and delivery
 * 5) Assignment submission
 * 6) Online quiz
 * 7) Question Bank
 * 8) Grading
 * 9) Discussion forum
 * 10) Files download
 * 11) Moodle instant messages
 * 12) Online calendar
 * 13) Online news and announcement (College and course level)
 * 14) Wiki and more

There are thousands of prominent users of Moodle. These include large-scale users as well. For example the Open University of the UK currently uses a Moodle installation for their 200,000 users.
