Authoring/Publishing Course Content
The two principal systems used for both online and face to face curriculum delivery at the Emily Carr Univeristy of Art + Design, are the Moodle course management system (CMS) and the WordPress system.
Moodle is a course management system (CMS) that allows faculty to post course content, communicate with students, set up quizzes or surveys and manage grades online. Visit Emily Carr’s Moodle Courses, or find out more information about Moodle Resources or Moodle Learning on this website or by using the Moodle drop down menus located below. Faculty, if you need a new course shell/shells for the upcoming or current semester(s), please log in to the Moodle Courses site, go to the Instructor Services drop-down menu and select, “request a new course“.
We provide blogs for Departments, Courses, Faculty and Research Initiatives. At this time we do not provide student blogs. Faculty interested in setting up a course, research or department blog, should email a request to Teaching and Learning Centre Please see our Blogging Services section for more information.

Faculty teaching online courses may be interested in getting setup with an Adobe Connect account for web conferencing with your students, offered in collaboration with BC Campus. An instructor will be setup with an Adobe Connect account “room” that is accessible as a web link that can then also be embedded into a Moodle course. Please visit the Adobe Connect Web Conferencing section for more information and learning resources/support.
