Global eLearning Conference

As the Global eLearning Conference, MootGlobal 2022 comes to a close, as things have simmered, it’s a good time to look back at the events that developed.

It was an event that housed Moodlers and eLearning enthusiasts with a similar goal: to advance eLearning in their way. There were over 800 delegates from 60 countries that presented a whopping 124 presentations and 24 sponsors, exceeding predictions. Martin Dougiamas, CEO of Moodle, described this event as one of the largest and best Moots so far.

Day 1 Highlights​

Martin Dougiamas, the CEO and founder of Moodle, gave the opening keynote address of the day. However, Martin gave a different keynote this time around compared to previous Moots. He talked about how Artificial Intelligence (AI) can change education and the importance of embracing new technologies such as AI in education.

Day 2 also featured two competitions, the winners of which would receive a ticket to the 2023 MoodleMoot. To join the first competition, you had to tweet a photo of your goofy socks using the hashtags #MootGlobal22 and #sillysocks. The pair of socks with the most absurd and inventive design would be declared the winner.

The second task took place that evening at the Moot party, a costume party with a “time travel” theme. Tickets to MoodleMoot 2023 would be awarded to the best-dressed contestant. The party featured a tonne of creative costumes because Moodlers know how to party!
