Owlia Course Assistant

v1.3.0Stable AIMoodle 4.5 – 5.3

AI drafting in the Moodle editor, with exercises by Bloom's level.

Course Assistant brings AI content drafting into Moodle's text editor. Instructors open it from the toolbar, choose what to write — an introduction, a development, an Owlia activity, exercises or a live-session activity — set the audience level and language, give a topic, and insert the draft once they have reviewed it.

Exercises can be targeted at a Bloom's taxonomy level, and fourteen activity formats are available, from icebreakers to simulations. Selecting text in the editor also offers rephrase, expand, spelling and grammar checks.

Learning alignment

The value for learners and instructors

Where this plugin genuinely supports learning — and where it does not.

Instructor workload

Core

First drafts of explanations, exercises and activity ideas, written where the course is built, ready for the instructor to edit.

Bloom's taxonomy

Supporting

Exercises can be generated at any of the six Bloom levels, from remembering to creating.

Differentiation

Supporting

Beginner, intermediate and expert levels, in six languages by default.

What it does not do

An instructor tool: learners do not use it by default. Content is always written for adult learners (18+), so it does not suit audiences under 18, and Bloom levels apply to exercises only. It does not check the accessibility of what it writes.
