Summary

In this chapter, we focused on activities that we can perform by using Moodle and some Web 2.0 tools. The objective was to show how this integration can open several possibilities for teaching and learning, providing free applications where teachers and students can create their own multimedia works, and then embed them in Moodle for instruction, discussion, or assessment. We created interactive floor plans, timelines, maps, online presentations, and gadgets, to represent data and mind maps. We also saw the possibilities of having collaboration in the construction of these multimedia works, as most Web 2.0 tools have a standard option to create a collective work with others. But to achieve this, we need better communication and assessment tools to complement the ones provided by Moodle, something we will see in the following chapters.
