Course Websites

Hampshire's course website system, Moodle, is an open source learning management system with an emphasis on communication, collaboration, and student involvement. Hampshire is an active member of the Collaborative Liberal Arts Moodle Project (CLAMP), which is a consortium of liberal arts institutions that collaborates on Moodle development and support.

Please note:

• Instructors must make their course website available to students. Until they do, students cannot access it.
• Instructors can add students and TAs to their course website as needed, though they do still need to add/drop on TheHub as appropriate. If a student does not appear when you try to enroll them, ask them to log into the Hampshire Moodle first and try again.
