Moodlers' Reviews

Moodle really is magic
As a moodle beginner, I found Laurie's book informative and easy to use. It is very easy to follow, and I am enjoying creating new moodles for both students and staff to use. I'd like to see her expand with Moodle Magic Intermediate, or Moodle Magic using specific modules. If you're new to moodle, this is a great book to help get you started.

A must-have resource!
This easy-to-read manual provides step-by-step directions for creating courses using the latest in online learning. Moodle is fast becoming an invaluable tool for educators and anyone wanting to expand learning beyond the classroom walls. An excellent resource for school libraries and technology coordinators to help students move into the 21st century online learning experience.

You don't need magic to use this book!
Moodle Magic is precise, detailed and easy-to-use. Korte's step by step instructions make creating moodles simple even for non-teachers and those not technologically at ease.

Tech Taught Easily
Moodle Magic is helpful to anyone who is getting started with this technology. It's clear organization makes it easy to use. Having this book while creating and working with Moodle allows the user to have a 'hands-on' tool with them right along side the computer. This book would be useful for resource centers at schools which use Moodle. Teachers need a tool like this!
