Why mConnect?
mConnect is the perfect integration solution to bring Moodle and Microsoft Teams together, seamlessly combining the best of both platforms. With mConnect, you can enjoy a fully automated workflow that increases productivity, collaboration, and engagement for teachers and students. This integration allows you to manage all your course-related activities directly in Teams without having to switch between platforms. By synchronizing Moodle with Teams, mConnect ensures that everything from assignments to course updates automatically appear in your Teams environment, creating a single space for learning and communication.
One of the standout features of mConnect is the automation of Teams creation and maintenance. Based on the actions you perform in Moodle, such as creating a course, enrolling students, or adding new content, mConnect automatically creates and updates the appropriate Teams channels. This reduces the manual workload for administrators and instructors, allowing them to focus more on teaching while mConnect handles the technical aspects in the background.
