Summary


In this chapter, we learned the best way to develop and configure your student-centered project-based courses. We focused on the fact that students will need a very clear structure to manage their projects and that you'll need to provide support in terms of links to applications that they may need in order to perform their collaborative activities.

We looked at the importance of having an easy-to-modify, flexible, responsive theme so that the course has a good look and feel on all devices.

In the next chapter, we will guide you through using Moodle to create online communities, which will use the flexibility of Moodle to develop new ways of training and knowledge transfer.
