On MoodleMeet (the Ning.com-based social network for Moodlers) the following question was recently posed to all users by Leslie Coe:

We are getting ready to do a Moodle upgrade soon. During that time we are also going to install moodle modules/plugins. We already have some installed and I am compiling a list of additional ones.

I am interested in learning what your recommendations are for “must have” add-ons?  (more at http://moodlemeet.ning.com/forum/topics/moodle-must-haves)

The community responded in kind and suggested a great many stable, useful and some really invaluable modules and plug-ins that can be found on Moodle.org’s Module/Plug-in Repository.

Some of the great add-ons suggested include the

• Book resource (a personal favorite)
• Contact form add-on
• Webquest
• Questionnaire
• Nanogong and
• Dimdim

Leslie posted a list of the plug-ins and modules suggested/that her school might consider on her Diigo account: http://www.diigo.com/list/tortuga28/MoodleModules

If your school/organization is considering a Moodle upgrade, these are some great ones you should review.
