Moodle Timeline course format

A simple timeline to simulate a real social network course in moodle.

Real timeline

As a social network, course activities and posts are visible in a chronological sequence. It is also possible to filter the contents and order them by date.

Social posts

With a simple and easy to use social post system where teachers will be able to open discussions and the students could comment on them.

Mention users

An awesome system to mention users. New functionality to mark each other in the posts, also linked with the Moodle's notification system.

Simple course management

The format is very simple and intuitive. Teachers can easily add resources by just clicking in the link Add an activity or resource, without enable edition first.

  • A straightforward way to add activities and resources
  • Direct access to activities' edit options menu
  • Easy to create new posts
  • Order timeline by date
  • Filter timeline items

A new experience in Moodle learning.

Amazing user mention

Users could mention each other on posts.

  • Link to the users' profile
  • Users receive notifications when they are mentioned in a post
  • Work with course groups

A good opportunity to provide real interaction with your class and its members.

    Matt, again, to find non-recent resources use the filters, the plugin has two filter: one to see only activities and another one to order by date.

    This is a course format plugin, so it is not a supplement to existing courses.

    Yes, lost ground is not my responsibility, I am helping to revert this!

    Excellent course format. In order to be more near of social network timeline, could it be possible to pin on top an activity or a post manually or for a period ? Thanks again for your work !

    I love it! Great for community building. I would love to see a rich editor (Atto or TinyMCE). Thank you.
