• Like many learning management systems, Moodle

has many small icons throughout the interface.

• In Moodle 3.3, these small icons have now been

replaced with images from the very popular Font

Awesome project.

• The use of Font Awesome provides a number of benefits:

° it improves the performance and efficiency when

showing Moodle pages;

°

° they look great at any size, and on any resolution

screen;

° they are high-contrast (to AAA standard) and

improve accessibility for those with poor vision;

° it allows theme designers to easily colour the

icons to make them fit with their theme

° it provides a massive set of well-designed

standard icons into Moodle core, providing great

options for any Moodle plugin developer
