Moodle

Moodle is KPU's primary learning management system that can be used to support face-to-face classes in addition to digital learning environments offered partially or fully online. In Moodle, instructors can share course content, engage students with discussion forums, manage assignments and quizzes, as well as grading.

Simple Syllabus

Simple Syllabus is a tool designed to make syllabus creation more consistent, accurate, and accessible for students. The platform supports faculty as it integrates with some of KPU’s other information system such as course outline (CIM) and scheduling systems (Banner) to auto populate required fields. It also provides links to KPU policies and student support resources. Faculty will enter their own course-specific content prompted by the template.
