## 🚀 Release highlights

 

- 🗓️ **Moodle 4.5** – The May release is built on Moodle 4.5 LTS, introducing a redesigned architecture for Artificial Intelligence.
- ✨ **Moodle AI Subsystem:  **A core API that lets you plug in AI services (e.g. OpenAI, Azure AI) to generate and summarise course content**.**
- ✏️ **TinyMCE as default**: Replaces Atto. Ships with an in-browser **Screen Recorder** (max 120 seconds).
- 📦 Core H5P tool: The separate H5P plugin will be phased out; all new content is created via the new core H5P tool.
- 📂 Course Subsections: Lets teachers group topics or activities into clear sub-units – ideal for large courses.
- 🧭 New “Custom Sections” course format: Enables a more logical, visually tidy course structure.
- 📐 Improved course page: Easier content management: indentation, bulk-edit actions and a cleaner view.

👇 Read more about the AI Subsystem, TinyMCE and H5P below. 

 

### ✨ Moodle AI Subsystem – Integrating AI into the Learning Environment

The new **AI Subsystem** lets you connect external AI services to Moodle. Teachers can generate text, images and summaries directly in course pages. Administrators decide **where** and **how** AI is available. Providers supported at launch include **OpenAI** and **Azure AI**.

 

### ✏️ TinyMCE – Default editor + Screen Recorder

TinyMCE is now the default text editor in Maisteri LMS. A built-in Screen Recorder lets you capture up to two-minute videos straight from the browser – no extra plugins required.

### 📦 Migration to the core H5P tool

Maisteri LMS moves to Moodle’s **core H5P** activity. The old plugin will be retired gradually. New H5P content can only be created via the **Content bank**; existing activities continue to work after the upgrade.

 

## 🔧 Other changes
