Create
Create digital content by combining your own materials with interactive learning content and rich media. SoftChalk features embedded assessment so that you can capture students’ learning directly after exposure to the materials. After you have created your content, SoftChalk automatically converts the content into accessible HTML content. This allows all students the ability to access the materials successfully.
Manage
SoftChalk is a cloud platform that allows you to access and edit your content from anywhere. The application has seamless Moodle integration, and once you make a change in SoftChalk Cloud, the changes are applied to all courses where this material is housed. You are also able to track student scores directly from the Moodle gradebook.
Share
Minimize the time it takes to prepare digital content for your learners by using the SoftChalk repository. There are thousands of free learning resources that are accessible for you to copy, customize, or enhance for distribution with creative commons permissions to use in your Moodle courses.
