Single sign-on: The WizIQ Virtual Classroom

doesn’t require Moodle users to maintain separate

accounts with WizIQ. Moodle administrators simply

need to download the module and install it on their

Moodle servers. Teachers and students can then

seamlessly access the WizIQ Virtual Classroom

without any additional authentication.

Schedule and manage classes, upload

content, and view recordings from within

Moodle: From scheduling, delivering online

classes, and class management to uploading

content for use in these classes, all WizIQ functions

are accessible from within Moodle. There’s no

separate dashboard, no extra data entry, and

no extra work. Just schedule online classes with

WizIQ’s Moodle module within your Moodle website

and get to teaching online, in person, or both.

No special training required: Once the WizIQ

Virtual Classroom module is installed, live class

sessions can be implemented as Moodle activities,

and students from around the world can have

seamless access to synchronous events within the

context of a blended Moodle course.

Direct editing of WizIQ classes and content

from within Moodle: Teachers can edit the

schedule for their upcoming classes and make

changes to the uploaded content, again, right from

within Moodle.

Track class attendance: WizIQ Virtual Classroom

records every time students log in and out. An

attendance report is generated by the end of class

and teachers can download the report to use for

their own records or to share with parents.

Get class recordings: All classes on WizIQ can

be recorded. Teachers can allow students to view

the recordings online or download them for later

reference. The recorded classes capture all media

sharing (audio/video), desktop sharing, and content

sharing in the main portion of the WizIQ Virtual

Classroom (Breakout Rooms are not captured). A

weekly report is sent to teachers on how often the

recordings were viewed and/or downloaded.

OverviewThe WizIQ Virtual Classroom integrates with Moodle to create new capabilities for synchronous learning - all from within the LMS environment.

Key functions provided by this integration are:
