Moodle Teaching Techniques is my newest book from Packt Publishing. This book is for Moodle teachers and course creators who want to use Moodle's features in more creative ways. The book is subtitled Creative Ways to Use Moodle for Constructing Online Learning Solutions.
This book focuses on best practices for constructing learning solutions, such as:
- Applying your teaching techniques through Moodle
- Creative uses for Moodle’s standard features
- Workarounds, providing alternative solutions
- Abundantly illustrated with screenshots of the solutions you’ll build
- When and how to apply the different learning solutions

Reviews of Moodle Teaching Techniques
Susan Smith Nash, the "E-Learning Queen," published an extensive review of the book: http://elearnqueen.blogspot.com/2007/11/moodle-teaching-techniques-meets.html
Free Software Magazine was kind enough to say that "This type of practical advice is worth its weight in gold": http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/articles/book_review_moodle_teaching_techniques
Harold Jarche posted a very short review on his learning and technology blog. I enjoyed the comments about using a dedicated learning management system versus making a mashup of other tools: http://www.jarche.com/?p=1447
Our Lady's Catholic High School, a mathematics and computing specialist high school, uses Moodle and also offers training in Moodle. See their review on their Moodle training blog: http://www.moodletraining.org/?p=20
