==Where in the TOC?==
Did a search and replace.  Does this help or does Helen/Mary have a better system.  I only know the manual way to add links.  Humm, I know how to put square brackets around every line that has a * with a S&R.  Since the majority of bullets are simply the title to pages, we could edit the broken ones.  Want?  Here is my first attempt, no brackets took literally 1 minute.--[[User:chris collman|chris collman]] 23:11, 30 September 2011 (WST)

Please can anyone help by suggesting where in the TOC it would make most sense to include the following items:
*[[Blogs]]
*[[Tags]]
*[[RSS]]
*[[Messaging]]

Managing a Moodle course
--[[User:Helen Foster|Helen Foster]] 16:35, 1 October 2011 (WST)


: Activities > (sitewide) communication tools?  We do not have anything that addresses "Email" except a contributed module.  We call chat and forums activities.  Notes is on the communication tool template with Comments, blogs, messaging, tags and calendar. I would drop the "sitewide", maybe call it "Communications".  Might add chat and forums. --[[User:chris collman|chris collman]] 20:55, 2 October 2011 (WST)


*Creating a course
==Site default settings==
*Adding users to the course (goes to course enrolment page)
I like this sub category.  A few others come to mind:
**Course enrolment (describing all enrolment methods available in course - manual enrolment, self enrolment, guest access, cohort sync, course meta link - with links to more detailed enrolment info under Managing a Moodle site)
*Course defaults
***Enrolment key
*Plugin defaults (long list, perhaps a generic short page)
***Unenrolment
**Glossary
*Managing users
**IMS Content package
**Grouping users (this page includes link to cohortsync)
**Lesson  - almost unique
***Groups
**Quiz - almost unique
***Groupings
**Page
**Notes
**File
**Communication( a page directing readers to the /news forum/calendar/comments/messaging/tags pages)
**URL
**Editing the course (page on edit icons and directing readers to Activities/resources/blocks)
--[[User:chris collman|chris collman]] 00:39, 13 October 2011 (WST)
***The text editor
*Managing content
**Working with files and folders
***File handling
***File picker (links to different repos like private and legacy)


:I also liked the idea of a site default settings section, but it seems most of the contents fit better elsewhere, and so I have deleted it. Hope you're not too disappointed Chris ;-) --[[User:Helen Foster|Helen Foster]] 18:42, 26 October 2011 (WST)


**Working with media
==Blocks==
***Video
I see the Blocks template only has the navtrail. I wonder if we can group [[Blocks]] together so the list is not so long and in something rather than strictly alpha (close to random) order.  Then the Block template would show fewer entries and readers could drill down.    --[[User:chris collman|chris collman]] 21:02, 2 October 2011 (WST)
***Audio
***Images
***Embedding content
*Grading work
**Scales
**Outcomes
*Tracking progress
**Conditional activities
**Activity completion
**Course completion
*Year end procedures


:Chris, sorry it took me so long to realise my mistake in missing the list of blocks from the blocks template! How do you think the block pages look now? The only problem I think with grouping blocks together is coming up with short titles for the groups. --[[User:Helen Foster|Helen Foster]] 16:48, 4 October 2011 (WST)

Where in the TOC?

Please can anyone help by suggesting where in the TOC it would make most sense to include the following items:

--Helen Foster 16:35, 1 October 2011 (WST)

Activities > (sitewide) communication tools? We do not have anything that addresses "Email" except a contributed module. We call chat and forums activities. Notes is on the communication tool template with Comments, blogs, messaging, tags and calendar. I would drop the "sitewide", maybe call it "Communications". Might add chat and forums. --Chris collman 20:55, 2 October 2011 (WST)

Site default settings

I like this sub category. A few others come to mind:

  • Course defaults
  • Plugin defaults (long list, perhaps a generic short page)
    • Glossary
    • IMS Content package
    • Lesson - almost unique
    • Quiz - almost unique
    • Page
    • File
    • URL

--Chris collman 00:39, 13 October 2011 (WST)

I also liked the idea of a site default settings section, but it seems most of the contents fit better elsewhere, and so I have deleted it. Hope you're not too disappointed Chris ;-) --Helen Foster 18:42, 26 October 2011 (WST)
