Storing Objects using Moodle

Thanks to the edu-sharing Integration for Moodle you can easily store objects in edu-sharing when working with the learning management system. Objects can be stored when creating resources for a course section or when embedding objects in WYSIWYG fields.

In addition, the edu-sharing workspace  can be accessed using a special block of Moodle in Moodle.

on this page:

Accessing the Workspace in Moodle


Using the Workspace block for Moodle users can access the workspace in order to work with objects. The edu-sharing blocks must first be made available by an administrator.

The workspace can be opened by clicking on the corresponding button in the edu-sharing workspace block.
