Moodle and Wooclap have been in a happy marriage for almost 4 years now. That's right! It's a relationship that's growing stronger by the day, creating an ever more seamless integration of Wooclap into the Moodle ecosystem.
Discover the 5 pillars of this unique couple that makes life easier for teachers and students alike in more than 170 higher education institutions such as the Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB), the Cardiff and Vale College or the University of Namur.
Wooclap is not the only tool to fall head over heels for Moodle, since the LMS is extremely popular with higher education teachers. Moodle is where most of them organise their courses, deliver key resources and gather grades. That's why Wooclap offers interactivity directly within the Moodle ecosystem.
Rather than adding another tool to the long list of those they have to master, teachers benefit from Wooclap's 17 interactive question types without switching constantly between windows. All that’s left is for them to express their teaching creativity!
Wooclap is selected in the Moodle activities menu
The integration allows you to access your Wooclap events directly in Moodle. You have access to your Wooclap questions in the right place at the right time.
For example, you can add a Wooclap Participant Pace questionnaire with a few clicks in Moodle’s course creation interface.
A Wooclap event is imported to create a Moodle activity

Let Rachel Panckhurst, an associate professor at Université Paul-Valéry Montpellier 3,
show you how to create a Wooclap asynchronous questionnaire within Moodle.
For your students, participating in a Wooclap activity has never been easier. All they have to do is follow the Moodle course flow, click on the Wooclap activity and that's it!
Wooclap questions appear within Moodle activities
Even faster than sharing the event code or QR code to connect, the learning experience becomes more interactive while remaining fluid. The student has only one course interface, Moodle, into which Wooclap activities fit seamlessly.
Another advantage, and not the least, is the identification of students through their Moodle IDs. In other words, when a student participates in a Wooclap event from Moodle, they are automatically identified. One click in the event settings is all it takes.
Why is everyone so fond of this option? Firstly, because it makes it even easier for you to analyse the results within Wooclap, and follow the progress of students throughout the year. But above all, it allows you to synchronise them easily with Moodle...
Moodle Authentication is enabled in the main settings of an event
Like many teachers, you may manage a large part of your courses on Moodle, including grading.
Wooclap questions are great for formative assessment. They allow you to measure the level of understanding at the class or individual level.
That's why synchronising the results of a Wooclap event with Moodle is so easy!
The results will then be available in Moodle on the Participant Report page.
Results are synchronised with Moodle in one click
For example, you can transform existing Moodle questions into Wooclap questions, and vice versa.
Thanks to your feedback, and your creative ways of using Wooclap, this marriage is getting better all the time. Moodle and Wooclap are in it for the long run!
