Navigating Your Classroom

Essential tools for editing your classroom:

The "gear menu" (the vernacular name for the "Actions menu")

Located in the top right of the course page, the gear menu allows faculty to "Edit settings" and "Turn editing on" (or off).

At the start of each term, faculty should use the "Edit settings" page to:

Ensure the visibility is set to "Show;" directions are on "Course Visibility" on the Moodle Users classroom. 

Change the course format.

Check that the course end date is not "calculated" and that any enabled course end date is correct. End dates do remove the course from users dashboards, so it you want your course to be useful as students continue their studies, do not set and end date.

When Editing is Turned On

To "Add activity o r resource," faculty enable editing under the gear menu, then click to see the options.
