In the world of online education, Moodle LMS has long been a trusted platform for educators and learners alike since last 2+ decades. Its versatility and user-friendly interface make it a top choice for creating and managing online courses. The vast plethora of free contributed plugins have made it easier for educators to create a customized learning portal for their users.

Modern learners are easily hooked up with social media portals because of various reasons. In Moodle, you can also create a social media type elearning course easily using the Format Timeline plugin.

The Timeline course format plugin allows you to simple timeline to simulate a real social network course in Moodle. You can download the Format Timeline Moodle plugin from the official plugins repository here.

The plugin allows you to have a Moodle course with a real timeline like social networks. The course activities and posts are visible in a chronological sequence. It is also possible to filter the contents and order them by date.

One of the most innovative features in the plugin is the ability to mention any user by using the @ symbol. With this new functionality users can mark each other in the posts, also linked with the Moodle’s notification system. For teachers, the creation of the course is also pretty easy & straightforward.

  • A straightforward way to add activities and resources
  • Direct access to activities’ edit options menu

  • Filter timeline items

In case you are looking to create more engaging courses in Moodle, I will definitely recommend this plugin to all my readers.
