DigiVET4ALL is an Erasmus+ strategic partnership project focused on the Moodle Learning Management System.  The project aimed to develop a set of resources to help educators advance their use of Moodle in VET/FET.  These resources are now available on the project website at DigiVET4ALL.com and can be downloaded and incorporated into Moodle sites.

This event introduces some of the resources from the project and demonstrates how they can be used to support FET educators to progress their Moodle course from simple content repository to more user friendly, interactive learning environment.  Topics covered will include:

• Improve user experience using course templates
• Transform content from Word/PDF to interactive H5P package
• Monitor student engagement and progress

The target audience for this event:  FET educators who use Moodle to develop and deliver digital content.  The DigiVET4ALL resources are useful across all subject / thematic areas, and this session is intended for educators from all subject areas.

Facilitation:  Andreas Baumann, John Feeney and Fiona Holden, teachers at GRETB Galway Technical Institute - one of the partner organisations for the project.
