The Politehnica University of Timisoara integrates information technologies into education. It adapted its teaching and learning processes by introducing a blended learning system. This paper represents an inside-out approach of the Virtual Campus Moodle based platform. Integrating the Virtual Campus into teaching meant: online, constant and continuous academic and communication support, communication tools, tools for supporting / developing / teaching the activity, improving the academic activity as well as the involvement and motivation of the students. The rate of success of students` presence on the Virtual Campus (VC) can be discussed and explored after analyzing the correlation between their activity on the VC and the grades obtained. To do so, we have analyzed the grades of the 2nd year students from all 3 specializations ran by the eLearning Centre: Informatics; Electronics and Telecommunication; and Communication and Public Relations. We have conducted a study case aimed to find correlations between the activity on VC and the final grades of the 2nd year students, by the end of the first semester. This study case raises awareness upon finding more efficient communication tools/ways between students, teachers and administrative staff.
