    Moodle is an open-source Learning Management System (LMS) that provides educators with the tools and features to create and manage online courses. It allows educators to organize course materials, create quizzes and assignments, host discussion forums, and track student progress. Moodle is highly flexible and can be customized to meet the specific needs of different institutions and learning environments.

    Moodle supports both synchronous and asynchronous learning environments, enabling educators to host live webinars, video conferences, and chat sessions, as well as providing a variety of tools that support self-paced learning, including videos, interactive quizzes, and discussion forums. The platform also integrates with other tools and systems, such as Google Apps and plagiarism detection software, to provide a seamless learning experience.

    Moodle is widely used in educational institutions, including universities, K-12 schools, and corporate training programs. It is well-suited to online and blended learning environments and distance education programs. Additionally, Moodle's accessibility features make it a popular choice for learners with disabilities, ensuring that courses are inclusive and accessible to all learners.

    The Moodle community is an active group of users, developers, and educators who contribute to the platform's development and improvement. The community provides support, resources, and documentation for users, as well as a forum for sharing ideas and best practices. Moodle releases regular updates and improvements, ensuring that the platform remains up-to-date with the latest technologies and best practices.

Levelling Survey 1

Levelling Survey 1 is an introductory practical exercise in surveying that focuses on measuring and recording the elevation differences between points on the ground. It typically involves using a leveling instrument (such as a dumpy level, auto level, or digital level) and a levelling staff to determine height variations.

The main objective of Levelling Survey 1 is to familiarize students or trainees with the basic principles, instruments, and techniques used in differential leveling. This includes learning how to:

  • Set up and level the instrument

  • Take back sight (BS), intermediate sight (IS), and fore sight (FS) readings

  • Record data in a field book

  • Calculate reduced levels (RLs) using the Height of Instrument (HI) method or the Rise and Fall method

This foundational exercise is essential for developing the skills needed for accurate elevation measurement in various civil engineering and land surveying applications.

 
 

Leveling Survey

This course introduces students to the fundamental principles and practices of leveling, a core component of land and construction surveying. It focuses on the theory, methods, and equipment used in determining the relative heights of different points on the earth's surface.

Students will gain hands-on experience using leveling instruments such as the dumpy level, auto level, and digital level. The course covers types of leveling (including differential, profile, and fly leveling), reduction of levels, booking methods, and error minimization.
