voice apps = Alexa Skills (Amazon Echo etc.) / apps for Google Assistant (Google Home etc.) / other VUI apps
These voice apps notify the submission due dates of assignments or the score of users in courses.
However, there are no apps that can be used to perform the learning activity with an LMS.
Link a Moodle user's account with an Amazon Alexa user's account
If Google Assistant app has been installed in your smart phone, say "OK Google, Talk to Moodle Quiz." to try this voice app.
For Amazon Echo (Alexa Skill), say "Alexa, Open Moodle Quiz." to use this skill after you enable the Moodle Quiz skill.
(The demonstration version of the voice app has been publicly released on Actions on Google and Amazon Alexa. EN and JA locales are supported.)
Moodle web services API functions shown below was used for the connection between the voice app and Moodle:
Users’ history of quiz attempts is stored on the Moodle site as usual and can be reviewed by each user.
The data returned by each web service function are intended for displaying purposes, and were not directly usable as the voice app response.To retrieve question texts, or question answers, the question data in HTML format, whose structure was not explicitly documented, needed to be analyzed.
MoodleDocs: Popular Moodle online manual maintained by Moodle HQ, covering all the features of Moodle
Unofficial (complete set of) Japanese version of MoodleDocs was built by translation using Google Cloud Translation API and manually rewriting afterwards.
(Although there is a Japanese version of MoodleDocs, it is not as rich as the English version and does not cover, in particular, the new Moodle features)
We developed a voice app with which users can search the help documentation of Moodle functions and can listen to the result using only voice commands.
(Assuming it is used on a device / screen different from user's Moodle screen)
To be able to retrive any words or a phrase from user's speech,
Responses must be limited to the amount of information that is necessary and sufficient in order to accurately convey the search results by voice.
Still on a prototype stage. More improvement needed to make it more helpful and userfriendly.
We developed voice apps to take quizzes on a Moodle site and to search LMS manual documentation via a VUI.
Although there are currently few examples of LMSs equipped with VUIs, it is considered worthwhile to practically explore the use value of VUIs as a new channel that strengthens the interaction between LMSs and the users.
