Individual activities, materials, or entire sections can be added to a clipboard with a single click on the shopping cart icon and then inserted into another learning space. Please note, however, that Opencast videos cannot be copied even with Sharing Cart. As with course import, these must be re-uploaded and embedded in the destination course. This step is essential, as the videos will otherwise not play in the destination course.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #00549f;\">Learning Map<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>As the plugin\u2019s name suggests, the learning map is an activity designed to gamify learning content. The individual stations along a learning path can be visually represented and linked together. Each station corresponds to a different Moodle activity that must be completed in order to achieve the learning path\u2019s objective.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #00549f;\">Plugin Presentation Sessions and Testing Opportunities<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>In April, the Center for Academic Teaching and Learning <a href=\"https:\/\/exact.cls.rwth-aachen.de\/cms\/~wqrog\/cls-exact\/?lidx=1\">ExAcT<\/a> (Excellent Academic Teaching) will host <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rwth-aachen.de\/go\/id\/mkbr\/file\/11-7201\">two informational sessions to present new plugins<\/a> (german only) in RWTHmoodle.
