Hi

Is there an online checking tool for students to see they have the required system/technical requirements to use Moodle? 


Kind regards

Not that I have seen.  Basic Moodle doesn't have many requirements (IE 9 or later or any other browser) - it would more depend on what plugins you have installed.

There's really no need. Pick a browser. Make sure it's up to date. Done!

Usman, what requirements you are expected from students? hardware based or software?

in one line, only tool required to use Moodle is browser, but then comes the additional plug-ins that are required to run files within Moodle, like flash, silverlight, java etc. for software based requirements you can use the plug-in called compatibility checker

for hardware based, simply make a page on your website asking for special hardware requirements (like this much of cpu and ram required)
