Most of the links in the course administration menu are only visible and available to teachers of the course and are contextual. Students see a course administration block with just two links - [[Profile]] and [[Grades]] (assuming "Show grades" is set to yes in the [[Course settings|course settings]]).
 
The course administration menu system allows teachers to manage [[Course settings]], [[Students | student]] and [[Teachers | teacher]] enrollments and their [[Groups | groups]], view the course [[Grades | gradebook]]menu (create custom [[Scales | grading scales]]), access the [[Question bank]], perform backups, restores and imports.
::''Note: Previous versions of Moodle, course administration settings had it's own block, now it is in the Settings block. Some instructions will refer to the old system''
 
==Overview==
The course administration menu is one of the tools the teacher can use when they initially create or enter their course.  A new Moodle teacher should look at these, maybe change the format type and adjust the course name and come back to them later.  The content of the course is not built here, but by clicking on the "Turn editing on" button. 
 
==Moodle 2.0 changes==
These notes are for Moodlers who have used previous versions. Course administration can be found as a sub menu in the [[Settings block]].  Click on Course administration to expand the sub menu. There have been several changes. [[Image:Course administration_2_expanded all.png|thumb|right|Course Administration expanded in 2.0]]
