Social format can be used as one of Moodle course formats. This format has clean and clear structure. Mostly it can be used for various discussions about certain topics. In forums teachers can write assignments or questions for students and students should post answers or discuss with course colleagues.

For example: teacher embed some videos which are uploaded to Youtube. They can give any assingnment to course students, from simple discussion to "video response", paper work, etc.

Forums in social format can be created for every topic, so for example every week new video is posted and students discuss about it with their course friends and teacher.

Assignments can be attached in forum discussion as files. Administrator sets maximum attachment size in megabytes (MB). Students can attach MS Word documents, PDFs, etc. Also students can embed video in the forum post.

Other case is then course is prepared by 2-3 or more teachers, then every teacher can have his own forum and students can discuss with every teacher individually.

Here is example of OLAREX remote experiments. There is 4 videos which should be watched by students, then they have to discuss on every case study (Fig. 1). Teacher can ask various questions, answer to student questions or post assignments.

After students watch video, they discuss various case studies (Fig. 2):
