A few weeks ago, a Social Media Cheat Sheet was doing the round. A nice visualization of the pro’s & cons of each social media channel, but with a business/marketing focus. I thought I should do one for social media use in education. However for most of the teachers I work with, our Moodle (EIT Online) is still their primary online teaching environment. So instead I set out to create this poster size guide for teachers, allowing them to compare the functionality and pedagogical advantages of some standard Moodle tools, adding a column to indicate how tricky the tool is to set up.
Moodle Tool Guide for Teachers
Hope you find it useful. Would appreciate your feedback.

Thanks so much for this job. I am an instructor in business courses in Brazil. The company I work plan to implement Moodle for distance business training. I wonder if in your point of view, there is a possibility that the instructor be passed back? The content of my courses can be saved? copied? Anyway, used by other instructors? Sorry for my poor english.
