• Empowering educators to improve our world

      Supporting the Moodle Community in Japan

      The purpose of the Moodle Association of Japan is to promote the research, education, and development of the open source learning management system called ‘Moodle’ and its related systems. The Association provides a community for Moodle users in Japan to learn and teach about using Moodle in their institution. The association is a not-for-profit voluntary association (任意団体 nin’i dantai), financially transparent in nature, and is very similar to a formal Not-for-Profit Organization (NPO) although not officially.

      The Moodle Learning Management System is an open-source software project supporting online learning that has grown since 2002 under the direction of Moodle Pty Ltd and is used in hundreds of thousands of institutions and workplaces worldwide by over 100 million users.

    • Connecting Moodle users in Japan

      Moodlemoot Japan is an annual conference dedicated to learning about Moodle. These conferences are a great way to connect with other Moodle users in Japan.
