Technical Requirements for DBS Online Diploma Programmes

The virtual learning environment that we use to deliver these programmes is centred around two applications – Moodle (a learning management system) and Zoom (an online classroom).

Moodle provides the information about the course, the lecturer and the timetable. You will find materials and activities here, as well as links to the live sessions

Zoom is an online collaboration tool that enables both the lecturer and the students to interact with each other and the materials being presented on the whiteboard

 

To use Moodle you will need:

  • A desktop or laptop PC or Mac, a tablet, iPad or mobile phone
  • Any internet browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Internet Explorer, Safari etc.) or either the Apple or Android app for your tablet, iPad or mobile phone
  • Materials are normally PDF, Word or PowerPoint documents. If you do not already have apps that can open these files, these can be made freely available to you for the duration of the course

 

For the live classes in Zoom it is important that you are able to both see and hear the class, and to be able to interact with the other participants. For this you will need to have:

  • A microphone
  • Speakers
  • A webcam

 

Most modern devices come with all of these built in. If yours does not have all of these (or it is broken) there are a few options you can explore:

  • Use the Zoom app on your mobile phone to attend classes
  • Purchase an external webcam with a built in microphone (these are available from around €15)
  • Purchase a headset with a microphone (also around €15)
  • Use a combination or your PC and phone by dialling in to the Zoom session for the audio (numbers available for most countries)
