Course Management Support

The Office of Instructional Technology & Design, in concert with other members of the Office of Information Technology & Research, provide and support a suite of tools for the GSLIS community.

Moodle

The primary tool provided for instructional use is Moodle, an open-source course management system implemented in 2007.  Moodle spaces are automatically provided for all courses a few weeks before the beginning of the semester.  Moodle spaces can also be selectively created for independent study projects, student groups, or other longer-term collaborations.  To request a Moodle space, please email -help, at support.lis.illinois.edu-
