Overview
Moodle (also known as the DLE) allows you to add external tools to your DLE pages, such as Panopto or the Reading list which by default should be available for you without the need to install them. Additionally to the default tools, you also have the option to enable Möbius assessment on your DLE page.
Möbius assessment is an online tool for creating and grading interactive assessments, particularly designed for STEM education. It enables automated grading of complex mathematical and scientific questions, supports interactive and adaptive content. With features like instant feedback and performance analytics, Möbius enhances student learning and simplifies assessment in math and science courses.
In this article, we will show you how to enable the ‘Möbius assessment’ tool on your DLE page.
