Moodle Moot Canada 2024

24 May 2024 by Catalyst

The team at Catalyst IT Canada would like to thank everyone involved in Moodle Moot Canada 2024! Organisers, sponsors, speakers and attendees – all of you made this event possible and successful!

This was our very first Moot and we were overwhelmed with the level of response the event received.

Hosted by Catalyst and York University and held over two days, we delivered 28 sessions to over 170 attendees from 12 different countries and at least five different sectors. We shared our Moodle lessons with each other, learned from experts in the field and made new friends.

“A Moodle Moot is where you can share with the community and learn from the community,” says Patrick Thibaudeau, Director of IT Innovation and Academic Technologies at York University.

Moodle Moots bring together Moodle users, service providers, integration partners and of course, educators, LMS administrators and various other specialists involved in delivery of quality teaching and learning.

“It’s difficult sometimes to find communities that you want to hang out with and explore ideas,” says Jack Rice of St Francis Xavier University (StFx). “So to have that community all in one place is incredible.” Jack is a Director of the Centre of Online Learning, Graduate & Professional Studies at StFx and was one of many inspirational speakers we were lucky to have at Moodle Moot Canada 2024.

“For a long time, as universities, we kept the entire planet at arm’s lengths,” says Jack, “and I don’t think we can do that any longer.”

“I’m really interested in a decentralised approach to learning in the future; where we can create partnerships with people from industry, from non-profit, from government organisations. I think we could really become a central hub for that.”

“Moodle Moot Canada 2024 highlighted the incredible potential we have when we come together as a community,” says Ruby Grewal, COO, Catalyst IT Canada. “The exchange of ideas and creation of new partnerships was truly inspiring. Thank you to everyone who participated and made this event a success.”

Inspired by the success of our first event, we are already planning Moodle Moot Canada 2025. To receive further information about this as it becomes available, please subscribe to our news and follow our company page on LinkedIn.
