Managing Moodle

Is it possible to organize my course?

Settings:

Format• Weekly format• week by week, with a clear start date and a finish date.

Each week consists of activities. • Topics format• Very similar to the weekly format, except that each

"week" is called a topic. • Social format• It is useful for situations that are more freeform. They

may not even be courses. For example, it could be used as a departmental notice board.

Settings:

Format• FN Tabs- displays section numbers, students

click on tabs to get to section.

Font and Color

• Large items = important items, eliminate large course greetings.

• Red is reserved

• Left justified first

• Blues are easy on the eyes

• Keep it the same

• Images

Visual Tricks:

• Top of course more important

• Movement in the course

• No “busy” art

Overburdened course?

• Request a new course

• Eliminate old material

• Use labels to create lines and headings

• Pick a color scheme

• Eliminate hard on eyes images

• Left justify, then indent
