(Arteaga Sanchez & Duarte Hueros 2010)
Don’t use the same course design all the time

“I like that coming straight onto the page, it is laid out clearly, is neatly organised and it’s easy to navigate around” (HHS student)
“Things that made me enjoy using Moodle was the user friendly interface …” (HHS student)
