Here are five of the most active Moodlers who use Twitter to share what they know, and who are more than willing to help you out.
-
Dr. Alicia Wyatt is an Associate Professor and Assistant Dean for the School of Natural and Computational Sciences at McMurry University. She’s been using Moodle since 2005 and volunteers a great deal of her time helping others in the community support forums. In fact, as of this writing, she has posted to the Moodle forums 1,465 times.

Julian Ridden is the ICT Knowledge Manager/Integrator at Saint Ignatius’ College, Riverview. He is also a trainer/consultant with Australian Moodle Partner, Moodle.com.au. He blogs about Moodle at Moodleman.net, and maintains the Moodle Playpen where you can play third-party plugins added by the community. He is a very capable theme designer, and is a moderator of the Moodle community’s Themes forum.

Mary Cooch is a teacher and Moodle trainer at Our Lady Catholic High School Preston in the United Kindom. She is a Moodle Certified Teacher and Course Creator and an accredited Hot Potatoes trainer.

Tomaz Lasic is a teacher an ICT coordinator at a Belmont City College in Perth, Australia. He writes about Moodle and other ICT topics on his blog, Human: For Fellow Teachers. On this site is also where you’ll find links to his collection of 2 Minute Moodles – quick tutorials that can be digested by just about anyone.

Martin Dougiamas is the founder and lead developer of Moodle. He has posted to the Moodle.org support forums 10,090 times since its inception in 1999. I realize this number isn’t that impressive since Moodle is his creation, but it is significant to note how active he is in the conversation. Despite the fact that he’s relatively new to Twitter( having only posted there 32 times as of this writing) his posts are typically about upgrades, the roadmap, and other changes that effect the Moodle code or community.
Of course, if you want, you could always follow me. Be forewarned, however, that my tweets are more likely to be about my glamorous life than they are to be about Moodle.
And, I’m only helpful on rare occasions.
Thank you Digmo and Moodleman for inspiring me this afternoon to write this post. Did I forget someone? Did you find this post helpful? Please let me know in the comments of this post.










Of course I follow you! And I read your posts too.
Well, it’s good to know that somebody is! Thank you, Alicia.
Like awytt, of course we follow. Although I want to sit with you one day and pick your brain on themes. You put the rest of us to shame with your “standards based” code…hurumph!
How very kind Patrick
Yes I too follow you! I’m curious to know where it says how often we have posted on Moodle.org? I might have posted some 1,055 times (well, more actually since a couple of days ago !) but obviously haven’t paid enough attention while on there to work that one out
Hello Mary. I estimated the number of times you’ve posted to Moodle.org based on the number of pages times the number of posts per page (which is five) shown on the “Forum Posts” tab of your profile.
I subscribe to several of the forums on Moodle.org via RSS, and although I don’t get much time to participate, I do read the conversations whenever I can. From my vantage point, you help out everyone you can, and I admire you for that.
Keep it up, and happy Moodling.
