Reading Assignment Moodle/Yammer and Support Learning Your Way Around Moodle: It's your Campus at UoPeople! What is Moodle, you may be asking; it's a fair enough question! So ask away, and we'll answer you here. Moodle is UoPeople's Learning Management System (LMS). Right now, you are in Moodle. Here's another way to think about it: Moodle is UoPeople's Online Campus. Although Moodle and Class Forums are not open to public access, students should note that these online spaces are neither private nor confidential. Neither students nor instructional personnel should assume privacy when communicating in UoPeople's LMS. Note that the University may access and observe communications conducted on the LMS for regulatory, accreditation, research, and other administrative purposes such as enforcing the General Code of Conduct, including investigating allegations of misconduct, suspected misconduct or other complaints. Suggestion: You're in Moodle right this minute if you're reading this article. We suggest that you click around for 15 minutes and see where your clicks lead you. We want you to feel very comfortable with Moodle so best to explore now before classes begin so you feel nice and comfortable with your LMS at UoPeople. Think of it like this: if you were in a new place you would walk around a bit to learn more about your new surroundings! So here too, take a walk around Moodle and see what you can see. It's your new campus at UoPeople! Welcome again!

Moodle Support Moodle Support is available to registered students through email at [email protected]. In order to troubleshoot the problem, students are asked to include the following information in the e-mail: 1. Student ID number and the student’s first and last names 2. The course number and the course name (example: BUS 1103 Microeconomics). 3. Provide a brief description about what happened when the error occurred. 4. Include any error messages received. Another option is for students to press the ‘print screen’ button (located on the upper right corner of most keyboards) and copy and paste the image into the body of the email. 5. Record the exact time (University of the People time) that the error occurred. Also, reaching out to your program advisor is also a great way to get your questions answered.

Yammer In the spring of 2015 UoPeople introduced Yammer, a secure social network to allow students and the wider UoPeople community to collaborate and communicate. This virtual space, Yammer, can be thought of as the University's "lawn" - a collaborative and social area where students, alumni, staff, instructors, supporters and volunteers can meet and hang out. Yammer groups are more than Facebook groups; the groups are designed to help facilitate connections in the UoPeople community. What kind of connections you may ask?

Yammer is designed to help facilitate connections between people, teams, information and ideas all within the University. It's actually quite cool! Here's a bit more about Yammer. You can use the UoPeople Yammer network to: 1) Meet and communicate with others in the larger UoPeople community. 2) Join online groups, interest groups, UoPeople groups (there are many to choose from) to keep all conversations, updates, and files for a project in one place. 3) Create your own groups. 4) Ask questions, share status updates, ideas, news and get to feel like you are on a campus! Do I have to join Yammer? No, participation in Yammer is optional.
