Format of page
In the center of the page are courses the student is allowed to access.

- The admin can specify "Sticky blocks" from the Admin page that appear on every user's My Moodle page.
- The user can (if the admin allows it) add their own blocks.
- a) Use care when activating this feature as default. Students can add the html block for instance, and link to items or images that might not be approved.
- b) The user can include (in version 1.6) any site block, although the user may not have permission to view the block's contents.
