Abstract

This paper presents the rationale behind the utilization of the Moodle Learning Management System (LMS) for blended learning in our Informatics Department and examines the steps followed, to replace the prior decentralized course organizational structure which consisted of a multitude of different systems. Our main goal was to implement a single, easy-to-operate, easy-to-maintain system, able to support students' and instructors' needs in all the courses. Furthermore, we present data which describe the pilot study of the Moodle implementation for the first semester and make evident the success of the department-wide migration.
