Administration block

The Administration block provides context-sensitive links to settings pages.

What appears in the Administration block depends upon the Context (Page being shown and user's permissions). For example, a site administrator on the front page will have Front page settings while a teacher in a course will have more options in Course administration than a student.

Here are examples of the Administration block:

• 

  Admin view from Front page (collapsed)

• 

  Teacher view in a course (expanded)

• 

  Student view in a course (collapsed)
