Reengagement plugin for Moodle – keep your students on track.

19 August 2024 by Catalyst

We have discussed the Moodle Reengagement plugin on numerous occasions and on our blog. Given how much interest it’s been generating more recently and with more of our clients asking about it, we decided to unpack it a little further and give it its own light.

If you are an educator, you will love the Moodle Reengagement plugin as it will allow you to:

  • Pre-configure reminder email alerts for your students, asking them to return to the course and complete activities
  • Set the email alerts to a specified period of time e.g. after starting a certain event such as course enrolment, or after completion of a previous activity (no email is sent out if the target activity has been completed)
  • Pre-configure reminders in advance, as you are setting up activities for the term / semester
  • Avoid necessary admin burden, including writing individual email reminders to students
  • Use this plugin to selectively to release timed content in a course
  • Improve student engagement

Surprisingly, quite a few Moodle users are unaware of this useful plugin.

The plugin is compatible with many Moodle versions, from 3.2 through to 4.1You can find Moodle Reengagement plugin here: https://moodle.org/plugins/mod_reengagement – it has been developed and maintained by Catalyst IT.
