Here’s a pretty slick new feature that could be available in Moodle, it’s a collaborative drag and drop workspace that allows students to simply drag and drop from their desktops to Moodle to share images or other files in real-time. The project is created by Felix Albertos Marco of the University of Castilla-La Mancha as part of his Ph D in Advanced Computer Sciences Technologies. The site is open for you to check out the resources as well.
