Moodle is an online Course Management System that allows students and professors to access course content anywhere and anytime.

Adelphi updated Moodle to version 4.1 in May of 2024. Faculty can upload documents, collect assignments, host quizzes, and add links to media and other sites.  Additionally, Moodle offers students many unique channels and opportunities for learning and activities in a virtual setting.

Browser Compatibility

Moodle is designed to work on most web browsers but we recommend using Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox for the best results

Moodle Support for Students

Adds should be processed in the system within 24 hours of being submitted to the One-Stop Student Services Center.

  1. Ask your professor if they are using Moodle for the course and whether the professor has made the course available to students online.
  2. Make sure your registration for that course number and section are confirmed with the One-Stop Student Services Center
  3. Double check your dashboard filters (set type to All, sort by course name or last accessed and scroll down)
  4. If the above have been confirmed, ask your professor to contact the IT Help Desk on your behalf (see question below).
  • Quizzes and tests should always be taken on a computer—never on your phone.
  • If possible, we highly recommend using a wired network while taking any quizzes or tests.
  • Try to make sure your computer is plugged in and charging so that you don’t lose power while taking any quizzes or tests.

Drops should be processed in the system within 24 hours of being submitted to the One-Stop Student Services Center. If you are still receiving course emails after this time, send a message to your instructor reminding him/her that you need to be removed from the course.

Moodle Support for Faculty

Learning can be extended beyond the limits of a traditional classroom setting through chat sessions, discussions, collaboration spaces, quizzes, surveys and more.

Through Adelphi University’s eCampus. Go to the Services tab and click on the launch Moodle service. You could also go to moodle.adelphi.edu directly.

Moodle is synchronized daily with the Adelphi University registration system and therefore your courses should automatically appear in your account. In the case that your courses do not show up or the wrong course(s) appear in Moodle, please check with your department to see if the information listed in the registration system is correct. Your department will need to submit changes if necessary.

If the information in the registration system is verified and your course still doesn’t show up in Moodle, please double check your dashboard filters (set type to All, sort by course name or last accessed and scroll down).  If you still don’t see your course, email helpdesk@adelphi.edu with the course name and number.

To review the list of current students in a Moodle, click on the “Participants” link under the course title.

Please check your Moodle participants list with the CLASS roster for your courses as it reflects the most current student enrollment.

The course has not yet been made visible to students.

Instructors need to make courses visible for students to be able to see and access them. To make a course visible, click on the settings link under the course title, look for the Course Visibility option in the General Settings, select “Show”, and save the changes by clicking on the “Save and Display” button on the bottom of the page.

Students are not registered in CLASS

Please check your Moodle participants list with the CLASS roster for your courses as it reflects the most current student enrollment. The CLASS system can be accessed via eCampus.

Please refrain from manually adding students who have enrolled in the course via CLASS but are not showing up in the Moodle roster.  The systems sync every 24 hours.  If a sync occurs, overwriting a manual enrollment, the student will gain a suspended status for double-enrollment.  

If a student has not been added to the Moodle course after 24 hours please contact the Help Desk for support.  Please include the course name, course number, and student name.

Moodle course enrollment automatically syncs with CLASS enrollment each day.  If a student officially drops the course their access to the Moodle course will be removed within 24 hours.
