Abstract :
Easy Java Simulations (EJS) is a free and open source software that allows to easily create simulations or virtual labs of very different topics such as control engineering, physics and so on. The Open Source Physics (OSP) project holds the ComPADRE library, a digital repository that offers more than 500 EJS applications, created by the community, that are accessible for free. Moodle is a free and open source software, well-known for being the most used and spread Learning Management System (LMS) all over the world. This work presents a new plugin for Moodle that allows searching, downloading, and adding to a Moodle course, EJS applications from the OSP ComPADRE library.
