Still using ANGEL but want to change to a new LMS?<\/span><\/h1>\n

Many ANGEL\u2019s clients are considering changing to a new LMS, and one of the most important questions for them to answer will be if is possible to migrate their existing courses to their selected LMS. I want to explore the procedure of converting or migrating existing courses made in ANGEL to Moodle LMS. First I will talk a little bit about what is ANGEL and its relationship with Blackboard, then I will talk about what is Moodle LMS and how Paradiso Solutions can help you migrate\/convert your courses to the Moodle platform.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Angel<\/p>\n

The Blackboard – ANGEL relationship<\/span><\/h2>\n

If you don\u2019t know already, ANGEL learning was, as described in wikipedia; \u201ca privately held educational software company specializing in eLearning. Its main products are the ANGEL Learning Management Suite (LMS), ANGEL ePortfolio, and services offerings. In May 2009, it was acquired by Blackboard Inc.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

In other words ANGEL was another Learning Management System that is no longer updated but it is still used by many institutions mainly in the education sector. Blackboard Inc., which is the company that acquired it, has been supporting ANGEL\u2019s existing users but it is continuously suggesting to make the change to its own LMS; the blackboard learn solution. However, some of its newly acquired clients has already decided to change to different alternative LMS solutions, such as Moodle.<\/span><\/p>\n

But, what is Moodle and how do I migrate my ANGEL\u2019s courses?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Moodle is \u201ca learning platform designed to provide educators, administrators and learners with a single robust, secure and integrated system to create personalised learning environments.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Moodle has a lot of features that are flexible enough to fit your institution\u2019s needs. Not only is open source, meaning that its code belongs to any developer that wants to manipulate the code, but it also has a stable community and lots of plugins to help users with a variety of requirements like how to do the ANGEL Blackboard courses migration to Moodle<\/strong>, for example.<\/span><\/p>\n

The process of converting or migrating, even importing your courses from ANGEL to Moodle<\/strong>, is very complex. Nevertheless, there is a great plugin that can ConversionThingy 2<\/strong>, is a program that reads ANGEL 7.3, 7.4 and 8.0 course archives and converts their course content into native objects in Moodle 1.98 and Moodle 2.0 backup files. The process involves clicking the Giddyup button, selecting which file to convert, and then watching the progress on the Status tab as the program enumerates the objects being converted and created.<\/span><\/p>\n
