myUnisa System Upgrades
The University of South Africa (Unisa) has recently announced that they are doing upgrades on their myUnisa portal to incorporate new learning management system. In their own words they said “We’re excited to announce that we are upgrading myUnisa. In just a few weeks, you will find new exciting changes and improvements in myUnisa.”
What is myUnisa?
myUnisa is Unisa’s academic student portal allows the students, lectures to interact with each other and a resource centre where students can access Unisa information such as study materials, assignments and more.
What is the Moodle App?
Moodle.com describes the platform “Moodle is the world’s most customisable and trusted eLearning solution.” This is the open source learning management system used by hundreds of millions of learners worldwide. It was created by a Western Australian born Martin Dougiamas.
Unisa Moodle App Adoption
The University of South Africa says “Moodle will be Unisa’s official online teaching, learning and collaboration platform used to support fully online and blended courses as well as other UNISA related research, groups and communities.” This means that Unisa students need to familiarise themselves with this app. One could only assume that very soon it will be compulsory for students to install the app on their devices as it will be widely used.
Why Unisa is implementing these changes?
They argue that the current learning system:
- is dated;
- it faces challenges with capacity, load, performance and reliability;
- can no longer handle upgrades and improvements;
- cannot adequately cater for the teaching and learning activities such as increased interactivity and innovative assessment types.
