Moodle 1.0 was released in 2002. Since then, it has evolved from a small open-source project to become the world’s most popular learning management system. At the speed of light, lets retrospect Moodle’s evolution during the past 15 years or so. Then, take a look at the current state of play and the future ahead. For long-time Moodlers, this presentation will be a nostalgic journey down memory lane. For new(er) Moodlers, it will be a light-hearted and curious insight into where Moodle came from, where it is now and where it may be going.
