- Social Constructivism emphasizes constructing or widening knowledge based on understanding of culture and context of society. Social Constructionism asserts that learning is particularly effective when constructing something for others to experience. This can be anything from a spoken sentence or an internet posting or powerpoint to more complex artifacts like a painting, a house or a software package.

Resources are usually added by teachers or other members with greater capabilities to edit course. In activities, the course participants get to 'do' something (post or reply in a Forum, vote in Choice, answer in Quiz, add to Database
- Role in Moodle refers to capability of users to edit courses. Roles can be defined, renamed and changed at different levels, from the entire site to single activity.
- Moodle Administrator can add and define a role. Moodle comes with 6 pre-defined roles: Administrator, Course creator, Teacher, Non-editing teacher, Student, and Guest. Some university also add Teaching Assistant role to a Moodle course.

- When you log in to a Moodle course, you will normally see three columns. The centre column – course content. Left and right side columns , which contain blocks . Most Moodle course home pages are arranged in the default three-column format. The two outside columns are made up of small boxes Moodle calls blocks. Blocks contain supplementary information to what’s contained in the centre of the page (e.g. you might add contact details) and some blocks help your students to navigate the materials more easily. They display information such as navigation menus, calendar information, latest news, who else is online and so on. http://www.ucl.ac.uk/isd/staff/e-learning/tools/moodle/guide/blocks
- It is also possible to navigate between pages by using your web browser Back & Forward arrow buttons. But, y ou will obtain more consistent results by using the breadcrumbs and links within the course pages. Breadcrumb trail horizontally across the top of the page, just below the title bar or headers. The breadcrumb trail is a navigation aid. It helps you quickly to move to the previous pages of your course, you just navigated through. It allows you to keep track of where you are in the programme. The breadcrumbs give you a trail to follow back to the starting or entry point . I am sure you remember the little man finding his way back by making a pebble trail! Keep an eye on this as you navigate around the course, you will notice that it changes to reflect your current position . Links - Some links open inside the same window and some links will open a new window. We recommend if you are linking to a resource inside your Moodle course to select - same window. If you are linking to a resource outside your Moodle course then select - new window.
- Blocks are placed on the left and right side columns and their distribution may vary depending on the course. Course Summary Block : the block give you a summary of the course you are currently viewing. Activities Block: the block provides quick access to all the course activities and resources. This block will only show you the activities that are available to you. People block allows you to see a list of all the participants on the course. You can access a user’s profile by clicking on their name. You can edit your own profile by clicking on your name and choosing the Edit Profile option. Online users: This block lists the names of the course participants that are currently online. You could immediately talk to them in the chat room! This block indicates any updates or posts made to the News Forum. Click the word more ... in blue to read the entire post. Upcoming events. Here your facilitator will remind you of deadlines or other events coming up you should be aware of. There are other blocks that can be added by your facilitator depending on the nature of course and the needs of the learners.

After the initial posting, students can view and respond to others' postings. This feature allows equal initial posting opportunity among all students, thus encouraging original and independent thinking. Standard forum is the best general-purpose forum.
