Hallo Steffen

Nicht ganz "dennoch am Rechner ausfüllt". Aber das Wechselspiel zwischen MC-Tests auf Papier und auf dem Rechner wird gerade im engl. Forum diskutiert: Siehe Re: Core questions.

Hallo Kathleen

Hast du die Online-Funktionen von Moodle Mobile App genau angeschaut? Ich bin kein Power-User im Smartphone, aber als ich das letzte Mal angeschaut habe, konnte der App erstaunlich viel, ohne Internet im Forum schreiben und sogar Tests (Quiz) durchfuehren waren darunter.

Yes, if you plan to stay with the (basic) zip archive method.

Yes, "OR", because Git is an alternative method to the zip archive. Unlike the zip archive method, the Git method is very versatile. If you 'clone' Moodle Git repository today (there is only one), you can jump between any Moodle release since from 1.3.0 to 4.0.4 in it! I know, it sounds too fantastic. That is how a "proper" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_versioning system  works.

Since you want only the current 3.9 (LTS), which is 3.9.17 as of today, you get that as documented in the link I gave earlier in https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=438365#p1767234.

@Sona, yes you can get the zipped version from the link https://download.moodle.org/releases/security/ or the Git version as described in https://docs.moodle.org/39/en/Git_for_Administrators#Obtaining_the_code_from_Git.

Hi

It is the _version_ (3.9) which is LTS. Ref. https://moodledev.io/general/releases#moodle-39-lts. The version 3.9 goes through releases, tagged 3.9.0, 3.9.1, ..., every two months. The ones with a '+' are not formally _released_ (with a tag), they are incrementals between two releases.

If you install a 3.9 today or upgrade to 3.9, you have the choice between 3.9.17 and 3.9.17+. The difference is subtle. Say, if somebody wants to reproduce your exact Moodle to reproduce an issue, then 3.9.17 (without '+') is unambiguous.
