Packt is pleased to announce a new book on Moodle that is aimed at helping users create a Moodle Theme right from the graphic design stage to the finished Moodle Theme. Written by Paul James Gadsdon, this book will offer design examples to administrators, designers or teachers and help them create appropriate themes for different student age groups and styles.
Moodle is a highly extensible virtual learning environment and is used to deliver online teaching and training materials. Theming is one of the main features of Moodle that can be used to customize your online courses and make them look exactly how you want them to.
Users will first learn the concept of Moodle themes and how they work. They will then learn how to create themes for Moodle, the tools that are required for the job, and how to download new themes from various resources on the Internet. Along with the creation of themes, they will also be shown how to choose and change an existing Moodle theme, and test the changes they have made.
