 Course communication in Moodle 4.3 Moodle 4.3 enhances in-course communication with Matrix as an integrated provider, allowing automatic room creation with course participants created as room members, teachers with moderator rights, along with settings to share a custom link to an existing room in Matrix or another messaging system. With the experimental setting Enable Communication Providers enabled, our admin sees a new section from Site Administration plugins Communication. From Manage Communication Providers, she can provide the details for a Matrix server which will then allow teachers to use Matrix rooms in their courses. The Custom Link option, also enabled here, allows teachers to link to existing rooms in Matrix or other systems. Let's go and follow teacher Mr Wilson as he sets up a room in his course. From his course, he clicks More, then Communication. From here, he selects the provider. If the site is using Matrix, he can select Matrix and his room will shortly be created. He clicks the icon to access the room. As a teacher, he will automatically have moderator rights as well as any non-editing teachers who are assisting him and only the participants in his course will have access to the room. Alternatively, if he's already set up a room in Matrix or another messaging system, he can select Custom Link, give it a name and then add the link to the existing room. Once he saves the changes, his room will quickly be available from the icon. To summarise, Enhanced Communication Options in Moodle 4.3 include Matrix as an integrated provider for room and user creation along with a custom link in courses for existing rooms.
