Information on the minimum requirements needed for the effective use of Moodle. All modules hosted in Moodle are required to meet the Baseline. The Moodle Baseline is a simple set of guidelines designed to improve and standardise our use of Moodle at the University of Essex. It sets out the minimum requirements for functional and effective use of Moodle. Use the checklist on this page to make sure you’re meeting these standards. Support, resources, and development opportunities are available if you want to go beyond the Baseline. If you need help implementing it, please email
