 Welcome to Moodle 3.5, our latest major release. We at Moodle HQ, together with our Moodle partners and community members, are proud to be sharing a number of features and improvements. Standard settings to help Moodle users meet GDPR compliance are now available. A new site administration setting with privacy and policies features will allow Moodle administrators to set up age checks, handle user agreements to cite policies and manage data requests and data deletion. Please note that these important GDPR features are also available as plugins for Moodle 3.3.6 and 3.4.3. Please see Moodle.org for the documentation. Moodle 3.5 now has Bootstrap 4 stable as standard and additionally educators can enhance the look of courses in the dashboard with images or coloured patterns. New icons for course links which are highlighted when clicked on are also available. And lastly, a series of new fonts including the Apple System User Interface is now available. New fonts will default based on users, browsers and operation systems. Enjoy a more attractive and accessible view of your Moodle dashboard. Filtering questions in the question bank is now easier than ever by using tags. Educators, we have good news. You can now filter questions in the question bank easily through the provision of tags in Moodle 3.5. This improvement is made possible through funding from the Moodle Users Association. Thank you. Moodle users can now record sound and video more easily by using the Atto Editor. In Moodle 3.5, the Atto Editor now has options for recording audio and video so that educators and their learners can easily embed media into their learning materials. Record and create your audio and video straight on your Moodle site. You can even do it from your mobile devices. Simple Global Search in Moodle 3.5 means you can find everything without an external search engine. In Moodle 3.5, we're very happy to release a new simple global search feature. This means that you don't need an external search engine installed to find resources, activities and other important information. Simply search for these in your Moodle. And of course you can filter your search by individual activities, type of material and so on. New Badge Criteria in Moodle 3.5 means you can make awarded badges even more special. In our latest release, we bring new badge criteria which allow our users to receive a badge for uploading a profile picture, use badges as criteria for other badges and use membership of a cohort as a badge criterion. Cohort themes in Moodle 3.5 give administrators options to allow, edit and select a specific theme. Moodleers, if you're using cohorts, in Moodle 3.5 you can now assign them to a specific theme. As Moodle administrators, you have an option in the themes setting page to allow cohort themes. Improvements to quiz and choice make them more accessible to educators and learners. We are very pleased to continue improving activities within your Moodle site. In Moodle 3.5 educators can include files when grading essays as part of our quiz improvements. And learners are informed of the display of choice results as part of our work to enhance the choice activity. Check them both out in our new release. Many more improvements are available in Moodle 3.5 including bulk edit and unenroll of users who previously self-enrolled, LTI Advantage extensions, messaging backend improvements and more. As always, all of these new features and improvements are made possible through the many hours of collaborative work between our dedicated team of core developers at Moodle HQ and hundreds of key developers and other contributors who are members of our amazing global community. Your contribution is essential to advancing Moodle's mission of empowering educators to improve our world. We look forward to continually working with our users, our community members and our Moodle partners to make our learning platform more accessible and more powerful.
