Welcome back to The Learning Curve! Your monthly peek into what’s new, what’s next, and what’s actually working in the world of learning.
In this month's edition:
How Moodle uses open source to expand access to education through community-driven innovation, customisation, and inclusion.
How reading books can sharpen your focus and make you better at your job.
How Moodle is helping expand access to neurological care in underserved regions, one learner at a time.
Let's get learning!
💬 What we’re talking about
“What if the future of education isn’t about chasing tech trends, but building adaptable tools that meet people where they are, wherever they are?”
This month, our CEO Scott Anderberg joined The Tech Talks Daily podcast to unpack what open source really means for global education. From supporting students in rural areas with no electricity to helping institutions design highly customized learning environments, Scott shares how Moodle’s open DNA is helping real educators—from solar-powered classrooms in rural Africa to big-name universities—tear down walls to learning.
In the podcast, Scott Anderberg talks about open source as more than software, it’s a way to meet people where they are. From MoodleBox to custom learning paths, open source opens doors.
"What will happen when human intelligence and AI merge? How will it change our workspaces, our schools, and our universities? How will learning change, and how do we evolve with it?"
MoodleMoot Global 2025 is officially taking shape, and the first look at the programme is already full of promise.
From expert keynotes and hands-on workshops to big conversations on AI, equity, and open edtech, this year’s Moot is all about helping you grow, whether you're an educator, developer, learning designer or just curious.
It’s the kind of agenda that sparks ideas, builds community, and reminds you why you got into this work in the first place.
Ever feel like your attention span is shrinking? Same, especially when work feels like a constant scroll of emails, pings, notifications, reminders, tabs...
Turns out, reading books might be the reset button we need. Unlike bite-sized content, books train our focus, fuel creativity, and make us better at complex problem-solving. They help us slow down, think deeply, and even become stronger collaborators.
This Osedea piece breaks down five ways reading makes us better at our jobs, and why it might be the productivity boost that doesn’t come with a notification.
🌟 Made with Moodle
Every month, we spotlight someone using the Moodle platform in creative, impactful ways. Have a story of your own? We’d love to hear it!
“It is like teaching someone to swim. At first, you steady them and keep them afloat… Finally, you cheer them on from a distance while they start teaching others to swim.”
What began with one student in Ethiopia has grown into a global programme that’s building skills, careers, and access to vital neurological care where it’s needed most.
This story isn’t just about education. It’s about multiplying impact, nurturing confidence, and creating a legacy of care.
