What is Moodle?

01. World Standard LMS

Moodle is the world's standard Learning Management System (LMS), and according to Moodle HQ, it is the world's largest education platform, with about 17 million sites and 300 million users in 241 countries and regions. (*As of 2022)

It has the largest market share among universities in Europe and Japan, and is widely used not only in the field of education, but also by global companies, government agencies, and other organizations around the world.

The main reason why Moodle continues to be chosen around the world is that it is the world's standard LMS - a system that has been refined and standardized by universities and other organizations around the world.

By using a global standard system and reforming the organization to fit the system, it is possible to review the organization's structure and way of being and to improve its international competitiveness.

02. OSS
(Open Source Software)

As an OSS, Moodle is constantly evolving based on the knowledge of various developers, users, and partners in the global community, and because the source code is open to the public, malicious programs and security vulnerabilities can be addressed quickly.

Moodle, in particular, is supported by a very active community in OSS, so it is known for its reliability and stability. It is constantly being upgraded with new features and improvements, including security patches, and bug fixes, so you can use it with confidence.

Furthermore, Moodle's global community allows it to respond quickly to global trends and social needs such as open badges, GDPR, and MFA (two-step authentication).

03. Cloud-based LMS

Moodle that we offer through SaaS is a cloud-based LMS, so there is no need for your organization to design, build, and maintain servers and networks (troubleshooting/security measures, OS/software updates, maintenance, inspections, etc.).

It frees teachers from cumbersome tasks such as server maintenance and management, and at the same time, reduces costs associated with devices and systems, as well as operational costs. Our engineers, with their expertise and high level of technology, will provide the service using AWS, one of the most robust cloud hosting platforms in the world, so you can trust us.

And because Moodle is web-based, it can be accessed from anywhere in the world. Teachers, students, and learning administrators can easily access Moodle content from anywhere and at any time. And of course, it is responsive, so it can be accessed on any device, including PCs, tablets, and smartphones.

You can also download the free Moodle App for iPhone and Android to save content and study offline.

Since Moodle offers a number of approaches to providing a sustainable learning environment, we can suggest a variety of ways to use it to meet your needs.

04. Scalability and flexibility

Moodle is flexible and scalable, and can be flexibly customized to meet individual needs.

Moodle complies with various international standards such as Open Source Initiative, IMS LTI™, SCORM-ADL, Open Badges, etc. It is designed to be modular and interoperable, enabling seamless integration with external applications, platforms, and systems.

You can also extend the functionality of Moodle with plugins and add-ons created by developers around the world, so the possibilities are endless.

Examples of services that can be linked:

On-campus systems and internal portals

In addition to SSO (LDAP, SAML, OpenID, etc.), it is also possible to link with your current internal systems and internal portals.

External applications and platforms, etc.

05. Easy operation, multiple functions

Moodle comes with a lot of features as standard. By combining them in a flexible way, it is possible to customize it to meet your individual needs.

In most cases, what has always been done in the classroom can be done with the standard features of Moodle, without having to spend a lot of money and time developing a new system.

The simple interface, responsive design, and ease of use with which educational content can be delivered by clicking, dragging and dropping are also the reasons why Moodle has been adopted by so many universities and organizations around the world.

06. Centralized management of all classes

Moodle is an all-in-one educational platform for face-to-face, practical, and online classes, making it possible to centrally manage all learning environments.

It is said that hybrid classes will become the mainstream in the future, where classes are conducted in a variety of formats to suit different purposes and situations. The problem with this is that each class format requires a different management method, which increases the complexity of the task. By using Moodle, which can also be integrated with internal systems, you can switch from complex management to simple centralized management, which will improve the efficiency of work within the university, reduce the time and cost for teachers, and help create an environment where teachers can focus on the education that only they can do.

For students, Moodle is a centralized platform for learning information, making it easier to access the information they need and creating a better learning environment.

07. Scalability and
global support

Moodle scales with the size of your organization, from a few to millions of users. And because it is a SaaS offering, if you change the number of users after you have signed up, you can simply change your plan and keep using it.

GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) compliant, and with more than 120 multi-language interfaces such as Japanese/English/Chinese, Moodle can be used by global companies and international organizations with confidence.

08. Reliable support

Moodle is OSS, so anyone can install it for free. However, if you don't have solid knowledge and expertise in Moodle, it can be difficult to find the best combination of features to suit your individual needs and create a learning environment. In addition, there are complicated tasks such as network and server management, and you will need to have people with expertise in your organization to keep it running.

We are the only Moodle Certified Premium Partner in Japan certified by Moodle HQ. Our Moodle professionals provide one-stop support for everything from networks and servers to content creation, providing an optimal educational platform for schools and organizations.

You will also receive an easy-to-understand video manual and PDF text created by Moodle professionals, so you don't have to worry about changing your staff in the middle of the project.

We also work closely with Moodle HQ to ensure that our support system is always up to date, so implementation is not the end of the story, but the beginning, and we provide continuous support for the construction and operation of a better learning environment.

ORGANIZATION

Easy operation, multiple functions

Integrated management of production of teaching materials, submission of reports, and grade management

Moodle is the world's largest e-learning platform and the most popular LMS used by universities in Japan and Europe. It supports face-to-face classes, practical classes, and online classes. By centralizing all of the learning, teachers can reduce their labor and achieve high educational effectiveness.

With just a click, drag and drop, you can create and deliver courses, online meetings, video feeds, PowerPoints, and other educational content. You can manage attendance, tests, reports, grading, course management, grades, certificates, and much more. In addition, to meet the needs of the global era, it supports multiple languages, MFA, and GDPR. It can be seamlessly integrated with various platforms and systems as well as the university system.

Moodle is an Open Source Software (OSS), which means that it can be implemented by the customer, but simply installing a system will only increase the burden on the teacher and make it difficult to run a highly effective educational system. Moodle's true power can only be realized when a technician with expertise and know-how in operating systems, networks, and Moodle builds a system that best suits the needs of each university, and provides ongoing support after implementation.

As the only Moodle Certified Premium Partner in Japan, we have the knowledge and expertise to provide you with the highest level of service in the world. Please feel free to contact us for more information on how we can help you implement the best LMS for your university/institution.

Elementary school, middle school, high school

To enable content sharing among schools while protecting personal information.

The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) has been working to improve the quality of education by realizing "optimal individualized learning" and "collaborative learning" to bring out the potential of all children, against the backdrop of the "Society 5.0 era," which will dramatically change the nature of society, and the "era of unpredictability" with an uncertain future, such as the spread of the new coronavirus. In addition, in order to guarantee the learning of all children even in emergencies such as the outbreak of new infectious diseases or disasters, we will improve the school education environment to support learning in the new era based on the realization of the GIGA School Concept.In order to achieve this goal, a basic policy was formulated to enhance instruction through the use of ICT and hybridization of face-to-face instruction with distance and online education.

In particular, Moodle is a very effective means of achieving the goals of creating an environment where ICT can be used on a daily basis, allowing students to use it freely as "stationery," using it to improve classes to achieve "independent, interactive, and deep learning," and using educational data such as study logs to enhance individualized learning.
