::Interesting, this should be a site or institutional policy, perhaps a tip in MoodleDocs on [[Course FAQ]] on sections.  Wonder if your issue is more of an exception than the norm. On the other side, many sites do not have sections, have self course enrollment 365 days a year.  They want breakpoints (conditions/dependencies) on the course level for automatic sequencing without administrative/faculty involvement beyond reports of completion.  Moodle is many things to many people.  Best --[[User:chris collman|chris collman]] 10:45, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

Page title history

The initial draft of this page was called Settings and was renamed "Course settings" by Helen Foster around this date. Thanks --Chris collman 06:46, 31 August 2006 (CDT)

Post Script, I removed all the previous comments, I think that is OK and I do not mean to offend. --Chris collman 06:46, 31 August 2006 (CDT)

I've a added a paragraph about the new page format "Page format" Flex pages. SE, December 28, 2007 - Moodlerooms Assignment

Starting course on a Monday

Currently the suggestion is being made to start the course on the first day of the class, or yesterday if there is no day defined. However, I have found that it is pretty important to start a course on the first day of the week (like a Monday), otherwise students will be breaking from one section to the next on different times if they are taking a variety of classes and this breakpoint will not be predicable in many cases. Should this be in the instructions?
