==Standard course formats==

===Weekly format===
[[Image:Weeklyoutline.png|thumb|Weekly format example]] The course is organized week by week, with a clear start date and a finish date. Moodle will create a section for each week of your course. You can add content, forums, quizzes, and so on in the section for each week.

:''TIP:'' If you want all your students to work on the same materials at the same time, this would be a good format to choose.

:''NOTE:'' Make sure your course start date is correct. If it is not your weeks will have the wrong date on it. This is especially important if you are restoring a course to use with a new section of students.

===Topics format===
[[Image:Topicoutline.png|thumb|Topic format example]]The course is organised into topic sections that a teacher can give titles to. Each topic section consists of activities, resources and labels.

TIP: This is great to use if your course is objective based and each objective may take different amounts of time to complete. An example of this would be scaffolding where the students are building upon the knowledge from earlier topics.

===="Show only one section"====

With the Weekly format and the Topics format it is possible via ''Settings > Course administration > Edit settings'' to "show one section per page". Here is a course with three topics, with the second one currently shown. The links left and right lead to topics 1 and 3:

''Notes:''
#The course home page shows just the section names and any text in the section description, with the names being clickable.
#If editing is ON, on the Main course page, then you will see all the content in all the sections.
#There is a link at the bottom "Return to Main course page" on each single section page.

===Social format===
[[Image:Socialformat.png|thumb|Social format example]] This format is oriented around one main [[Forum module|forum]], the social forum, which appears listed on the main page. It is useful for situations that are more free form. They may not even be courses. The [http://moodle.org/course/view.php?id=55 Moodle Lounge] is an example of a social format course.

The social forum can be edited by clicking the 'Update this forum' button on the social forum page. The forum introduction is displayed at the top of the course page.

===SCORM format===
The SCORM format only has 1 section, and allows teacher to insert a pre-built SCORM package. Moodle can use SCORM packages as a content type (see [[SCORM module]]), or as a course format.

An example of SCORM format is [http://school.demo.moodle.net/course/view.php?id=112 the New Staff Induction course on the School demo site]

Note: If you have a large SCORM object you want to use as an entire course, then you can select this course format and students will only be able to interact with the SCORM object, not the rest of the Moodle tools.

==Contributed Course Formats==
The Moodle community has developed a number of course formats, available in the [https://moodle.org/plugins/browse.php?list=category&id=19 plugins directory]. If you plan to create a new one, see [https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Course_formats Developers documentation].

See MDL-27646 and MDL-28555 and maybe the discussion http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=175758#p770737

===Collapsed Topics and its sister format, Collapsed Weeks===
These are formats that are essentially the same as the standard Topic and Weekly formats but with a 'toggle' for each section except '0'. The toggles' purpose is to reduce the amount of initial information presented to the user thus reducing the 'scroll of death' that can plague courses with a lot of content. The 'state' of the toggles is remembered on a per course per user basis. Collapsed Weeks automatically opens the current week. For more information, please visit [[Collapsed_Topics_course_format]] and [[Collapsed_Weeks_course_format]].

==== Demonstration ====

For a demonstration of 'Collapsed Topics' and its latest structure enhancement please see this video:

===Daily format===
The [https://moodle.org/plugins/view.php?plugin=format_days daily format] is a modification of the weekly format that shows sections by day rather than by week.

===Grid format===
The [https://moodle.org/plugins/view.php?plugin=format_grid grid format] is a modular and visual course format. Hides all topics and creates a grid of icons (one for each topic) with short titles. Clicking on an icon brings up the content from the corresponding topic in a "lightbox" style display.

===Menutopic format===
The [https://moodle.org/plugins/view.php?plugin=format_menutopic menutopic format] allows you to display the topics/sections in a menu.

===Noticeboard format===
The [https://moodle.org/plugins/view.php?plugin=format_noticebd Noticeboard format] presents the latest post in the news forum at the top of the course.

===Onetopic format===
The [https://moodle.org/plugins/view.php?plugin=format_onetopic onetopic format] shows each topic in a tab, keeping the current tab between calls to resources, in such a way that when it returns from a module as the blog or the glossary it returns to tab from where you started. This format is based on the Moodle standard format: “Topics”.

===Topic format (colors)===
The [https://moodle.org/plugins/view.php?plugin=format_colours colored topic format] is based on the 'Topics' standard format and allows a teacher to specify the foreground and background colours for each course section.

===Flexible sections format===
The [https://moodle.org/plugins/view.php?plugin=format_flexsections flexible sections format] for Moodle 2.4+ allows to have nested sections and each section may be displayed expanded (with all content on the parent section page) or collapsed (as a link to a separate page)

===Single activity format===
The [https://moodle.org/plugins/view.php?plugin=format_singleactivity single activity format] for Moodle 2.4+ does not have a course main page and immediately redirects to the activity. It is similar to SCORM format except that it can have any activity type.

Other contributed course formats are available from the [http://moodle.org/plugins modules and plugins database].
