What is MOIS?

MOIS is the integration solution of Moodle and Study information system (ÕIS), that will combine all integrations between Moodle and ÕIS in the future.

Currently, MOIS allows the lecturer to create a new Moodle course himself and also to create a connection between the Moodle course and the ÕIS subject-teacher pair. All courses will be archived three weeks after the end of the semester. Archiving allows the preservation of the course along with the associated students and their learning analytics data. At the same time, students will be able to access the courses they have already completed.

For the new semester, new Moodle courses must be created for the subjects with the corresponding ÕIS subject-teacher pair. The content of the previous semester's Moodle course can be imported onto the blank course created at the beginning of the semester. If you need help with these steps, please contact your faculty's instructional designer.

NB! If the Moodle course is linked to the ÕIS subject-teacher pair, the lecturer cannot unlink it himself. If it is necessary to do this for some reason (e.g. the wrong Moodle course is associated with a subject-teacher pair by mistake), please contact moodle@taltech.ee.

The MOIS pilot project is a prerequisite for the implementation of all subsequent Moodle-ÕIS developments, which greatly simplify the work of the lecturer.

Your feedback is important to us! Please send it via the Moodle support portal here so that we don't lose someone's good idea in emails sent to different addresses.

Benefits of a course created with MOIS:

  • Students' registration numbers and curriculum affiliations are visible to the lecturer;

  • Students are automatically added to the course (under development);

  • The course is automatically archived (under development).

Good to know:

  • If a subject-teacher pair has not been created for the lecturer in ÕIS, the 'MOIS (Create a new course)' option will not be displayed in Moodle.

  • If the subject-teacher pair has been newly created, it can take up to 24 hours for the 'MOIS (Create a new course)' option to appear in Moodle.

  2. Link Moodle course to ÕIS

Create a new course

Under this option, a new Moodle course page is created, which is linked to the subject-teacher pair in ÕIS. If the subject-teacher pair has not yet been formed in ÕIS, ask your institute to form it.

To create a new course, press the 'Create Moodle course' button on the MOIS page.

In special cases, when it is not possible to create pairs at the institute, send a request for a new course to moodle@taltech.ee, containing the following information:

  • Course code, title, language

  • Name of the lecturer(s)

  • Institute

If you have requested a new course via moodle@taltech.ee, you must later manually link the created course to the ÕIS subject-teacher pair (see Link Moodle course to ÕIS).

  1. From the drop-down menu, select the semester for which you want to create a new Moodle course.

  2. If the semester is selected, subject-teacher pairs created for the corresponding semester are displayed in the 'Choose subject' field. To select a subject, click on the correct subject name. The selected course is marked with a checkmark.

  3. Generally, the courses are already assigned to the correct institute by default, and the institute selection field is not displayed in this case. If the institute to which the course belongs must be selected manually (EMERA and Virumaa College subjects), the drop-down menu 'Institute' will be displayed, from which the correct unit can be selected.

  4. If you wish, you can change the course name in the 'Full name' field (e.g. you can add the semester and year).

  5. Click 'Create Moodle course' to finish.


The link has been successfully created if a link symbol is displayed under the status in the My subjects view on the MOIS dashboard. Also, you can now quickly access your new Moodle page by using the direct link to your new course.

A newly created course is empty by default. Before you can start using the course, you must select what you want to display on the course page. It is possible to create the course from scratch, i.e. use the blank Moodle template. Alternatively, content from an earlier Moodle course can be transferred to the new course.
