Overview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Moodle allows you to set up your preferences in terms of languages, forums, courses, calendars, messages, and notifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As such, it allows you to configure the notifications about some of the events or actions that were created by teachers, students, or other users. As a result, you can easily keep track of the essential things that are happening in the courses you are enrolled in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
