Moodle Integration Design

This is a basic design for how the end product will work with Moodle.

MIST/C Installation

• To be done on a new or existing installation of Moodle
• Packaged as a Moodle Module that contains:
  • Moodle block for controlling server per course
  • NEW/MISTC server directory/files
  • Module itself with template nwc files
• Module will be distributed by NetLab and as a Moodle contributed module
• The Moodle site administrator will install the module and enable it

Adding a Course to use MIST/C

• As few as two steps to start using MIST/C with a course
• Courses are added using the standard Moodle interface
  • Note: This may be automated or tied to LDAP in some way
• The instructor logins with editing mode and adds the MIST/C block to their course
  • When adding the block, the system will automatically pick a port and configure a NEW/MISTC server process dedicated for this course
  • NWC file configuration will be either generated automatically based on templates or values stored in a database
