Transform Any PDF Syllabus Into a Complete Moodle Course in 60 Seconds
Superficial tools only generate isolated quizzes. CurriculumAI synthesizes entire institutional courses: structured Topic Sections, interactive Reading Lessons (mod_page), Bloom's Taxonomy Quizzes (mod_quiz), practical Rubric Assignments (mod_assign), and Socratic Discussion Forums (mod_forum)—with interactive staging before live database deployment.
The 6 Critical Pain Points of AI in LMS (And How CurriculumAI Solves Each)
Why universities and enterprises reject superficial "quiz generators" in favor of an institutional course synthesis suite.
Competitors only spit out random isolated MCQs that instructors still have to manually copy, paste, and wire into course structures.
Automatically provisions structured Topic Sections, interactive HTML Reading Lessons (mod_page), formative Assessment Quizzes (mod_quiz), practical Rubric Assignments (mod_assign), and collaborative Socratic Discussion Forums (mod_forum).
LLMs generate shallow recall questions with identical generic feedback ("Correct!", "Incorrect!"), offering zero instructional value.
Questions target higher-order thinking (Applying, Analyzing, Evaluating). Generates distinct pedagogical formative feedback for every individual correct and incorrect distractor explaining why the chosen option is right or wrong.
Tools dump unverified AI output directly into live production databases, risking student confusion and instructor cleanup headaches.
Instructors preview generated sections, edit lessons, review quiz feedback, and tweak rubrics in a tabbed sandbox cockpit before anything touches the live Moodle database.
Forced third-party cloud routing violates FERPA, GDPR, and institutional data sovereignty regulations.
Bring Your Own Key for Google Gemini (2.5/1.5), OpenAI (GPT-4o), Anthropic Claude (3.5 Sonnet), or DeepSeek. Plus private local LLMs via Ollama / vLLM with zero data leaving your server.
Content created in one course cannot be cleanly exported or shared across university faculties or external systems.
Export all Bloom's-tagged questions with CDATA HTML, answers, and pedagogical feedback directly to standard Moodle XML for seamless import into any existing course or external LMS.
Legacy generator plugins crash on modern Moodle 4.x+ because they query deprecated database columns (like mdl_question.category).
Fully compliant with modern Moodle schemas (mdl_question_bank_entries, mdl_question_versions, mdl_question_references, mdl_quiz_slots), ensuring 100% future-proof reliability.

How It Works: 4 Steps from Syllabus to Live Course
From raw institutional document to a fully structured, assessed, and graded Moodle course in under 60 seconds.
Upload any course syllabus in PDF, DOCX, TXT, or paste raw curriculum outlines directly into the studio.
Choose Bloom's cognitive depth, select your LLM (Gemini, Claude, GPT-4o, Ollama), and set activity preferences.
Review and refine synthesized sections, reading pages, quiz distractors, rubrics, and forums in the live preview cockpit.
Push the entire synthesized course directly to Moodle, or export standard Moodle XML question banks for external LMS sharing.
"Most AI tools in the edtech market treat teachers like data entry clerks—dumping a dozen raw true/false questions and leaving the grueling work of course building untouched. We designed CurriculumAI Enterprise Studio to eliminate that manual toil completely: turning raw syllabi into complete, pedagogically rigorous courses with sections, interactive lessons, Bloom's quizzes with distractor feedback, rubrics, and forums in 60 seconds."
Enterprise Technical Documentation & User Guide
Comprehensive operational guidance for LMS administrators, instructional designers, and university IT.
1. Installation & Setup
CurriculumAI Enterprise Studio installs as a standard native Moodle local plugin (local_curriculumai) with zero external server dependencies.
Step 1. Upload & Extract
Upload the local_curriculumai.zip package to your Moodle server under /local/curriculumai or install via Site Administration → Plugins → Install plugins.
Step 2. Database Upgrade
Run the Moodle database upgrade. CurriculumAI creates its job audit registry ({local_curriculumai_jobs}) and configures native admin capabilities.
Step 3. Configure API Provider
Navigate to Site Administration → Plugins → Local plugins → CurriculumAI Studio and enter your chosen AI provider API key.
2. BYOK (Bring Your Own Key) & Private On-Premise LLMs
CurriculumAI does not lock you into proprietary cloud services. You maintain 100% control over your AI inference pipeline.
Supported Cloud LLMs:
Google Gemini: Gemini 2.5 Flash, 1.5 Pro (fastest synthesis, 1M token context for long syllabi).
OpenAI: GPT-4o, GPT-4o-mini.
Anthropic: Claude 3.5 Sonnet.
DeepSeek: DeepSeek V3 & DeepSeek R1.
Private On-Premise Local LLMs (Ollama / vLLM):
Connect your self-hosted Ollama or vLLM instance by specifying your private endpoint URL (e.g., http://localhost:11434/v1). Zero data ever traverses public internet pipes.
3. Bloom's Taxonomy Cognitive Engine & Distractor Feedback
CurriculumAI moves beyond primitive recall testing by mapping questions across Bloom's Revised Taxonomy.
Cognitive Tier Breakdown:
Remembering & Understanding: Core definitions, concept mapping, and factual relationships.
Applying & Analyzing: Scenario problem solving, diagnosing system faults, calculating outputs.
Evaluating & Creating: Critiquing architectural decisions, evaluating case trade-offs.
Individual Distractor Feedback:
Every incorrect choice receives a dedicated instructional explanation so students learn why their logic was flawed immediately after attempting questions.
4. Moodle XML Question Bank Export & Cross-LMS Portability
Export all questions into standard Moodle XML with complete CDATA wrapping, Bloom's tags, and distractor feedback.
How to Export:
From the CurriculumAI Staging Studio, click "Export Moodle XML". The plugin downloads a valid XML file containing question categories, difficulty tags, CDATA HTML content, and full feedback arrays.
Cross-LMS Compatibility:
Import directly into any Moodle Question Bank or external LMS (Canvas, Blackboard, Brightspace D2L) that supports standard question interchange formats.
5. Security, FERPA & GDPR Compliance
Built from day one with academic privacy as the highest engineering priority.
Zero PII Storage:
CurriculumAI processes course syllabi and learning goals only. It never reads, stores, or transmits student personal identifiable information (PII).
Audit Trail & Capability Scoping:
All course generation events are logged in {local_curriculumai_jobs} with timestamp, user ID, module count, and token metrics. Only authorized roles (Managers, Course Creators) can trigger synthesis.
