Moodle buzz

This fall, Nicholls State University is implementing another form of online academic correspondence called Moodle, which is slowly usurping the role of the previously used Blackboard.

Farren Clark, professor of mass communication, said of the transition: "When you change from something that you are familiar with, it will always take some time to adjust. The administration, however, has done a wonderful job of making the workshops and tutorials available for faculty. One aspect of Moodle that I do like is how students still have the capability to communicate with one another.
