„Every Year Again“… comes the RWTHmoodle user survey
„Year After Year” is the beginning of one of the most famous German Christmas carols of today. The RWTHmoodle team also calls it “Every Year Again”. But we don’t have the Baby-Christ coming down on earth like in the carol, we furthermore give the users of RWTHmoodle the opportunity to evaluate the system and the services associated with it.

They compile page after page of literature lists, sore their fingers on correcting assignments and tirelessly answer all (!) questions from students. It is high time to pay tribute to our many tutors at RWTH! They make a huge contribution to ensuring that teaching works during the digital semester. In order for them to be able to make this great effort, however, they first have to get the necessary permissions. We from the RWTHmoodle teaching and learning platform have improved the role “tutor” in the RWTHmoodle course rooms and added more individual settings here.
RWTHmoodle in Motion – New Plugins in the Pilot Phase in the Winter Semester 2020/21
While the philosopher Heraclitus already knew that everything flows, RWTHmoodle proves us once again that this insight is true. Like a river, our learning platform is always in motion and constantly evolving. Our plug-ins in pilot operation make an important contribution to this. Each semester we test several plugins directly in selected course rooms and – after a successful pilot phase – we include them in our RWTHmoodle system.
