Moodle 2.0

Update: Moodle 2.0 is now scheduled for release in September after a thorough QA testing process [http://docs.moodle.org/en/Moodle_2.0_release_notes]

Moodle 2.0 is the summer blockbuster we’ve been waiting for.  Check out this Announcement from Martin Dougiamas about the formal countdown to it’s release: http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=153815.  The following is a break down of all the new or upgraded features from Moodle 2.0 and where you can find Documentation, Video, or just learn about them. As of now, not all features are available or testable, but you can get a great feel for how Moodle2.0 (out this summer) will look and feel.

Special thanks to those that have made such great video screencasts of the new/changed features: Gavin Henrick, Mary Cooch, and especially the 2.0 code contributors and developers.

Want to know about something else or have a link/video/info we can add to the spreadsheet?  Request a video or synopsis of the feature in the comments and we’ll see what we can do.

Release Info:

Currently on Moodle Preview Release 4 (http://docs.moodle.org/en/Moodle_2.0_Preview_4_release_notes)
