== Adding Faces to Your Course ==

Moodle Faces is a simple solution that allows you to view all of your students’ faces quickly and easily on a single page.

The only requirement for Moodle faces to work on your course page is that each user on your course has an up to date Moodle profile picture uploaded that will be used by the block.

This next section outlines the steps needed to add this block and start viewing faces!

'''Step 1'''

Log into Moodle and head to your course page. On the top right hand corner of your course page click “Turn Editing On”.

'''Step 2'''

From the “Add a Block” menu, you will see a list of blocks that can be added to your course page.

From this menu select the “Faces” block.

Step 3

An instance of the “Faces” block will now be added to your course page and is ready to go!

To get started with the faces block, simply click “Show All Faces” and you will see a list of all the students in your class.

'''Step 4 - Ordering'''

When opened you will see a list of the students in your course, however depending on the task at hand you may want to view the list in a different order.

On the top right hand corner a dropdown box allows the order of the faces to be displayed using their first name or last name as the ordering criteria.

To apply the selected filter simply click “Update” to the top right hand corner after you have made your selection.

'''Step 5 – Filtering by User Groups'''

Moodle offers educators the option to sort the users that have been added to Moodle based upon defined groups that have been created on the course. E.g. Group 1, Group 2 etc.

These groups can be used within the faces block to filter the faces that appear on the page.

By selecting “Show all Faces”, every student will be shown. Or alternatively depending on the names that you added for additional groups, these group names would show up in the Filter dropdown menu allowing you to select only a specific group of students to view.

'''Step 6 – Printing'''

If you would like a hardcopy of the student face list to be printed, without the added headings added by Moodle, the “Print Faces” button can be clicked to generate a trimmed down version of the faces list. This option will consume less ink when printed.
