| ==Getting started==
| | #redirect [[About Moodle FAQ]] |
| | |
| This document assumes your site administrator has set up Moodle and given you new, blank course to start with. It also assumes you have logged in to your course using your teacher account.
| |
| | |
| Here are three general tips that will help you get started.
| |
| | |
| *Don't be afraid to experiment: feel free to poke around and change things.
| |
| *It's hard to break anything in a Moodle course, and even if you do it's usually easy to fix it.
| |
| *Notice and use these little icons:
| |
| | |
| Now onto the nitty gritty. You will find the [[Course homepage|course homepage]] is broken down into [[Course sections]]. A course is created by [[Adding resources and activities|adding resources and activities]]. When writing text in Moodle you have a range of [[Formatting options]] including using [[HTML in Moodle]]
| |
| | |

| | |
| ==Activity modules==
| |
| | |
| There are a number of interactive learning activity modules that you can use in your course. Work can be submitted by students and marked by teachers using [[Assignments]] or [[Workshops]]. Automatic marking can be achieved by using [[Quizzes]]. You can even integrate your Hot Potato quizzes by adding a [[Hotpot]] activity.
| |
| | |
| Communications can take place using [[Chats]] and [[Forums]] for conversational activities and [[Choices]] to gain group feedback. Adding [[Wikis]] to your courses is an excellent way to allow students to work together on a single piece.
| |
| | |
| Content can be delivered and supported using [[Lessons]] and [[SCORM]] activities. Key words can be added to [[Glossaries]] by yourself of, if you allow it, your students.
| |
| | |
| [[Surveys]] and [[Database module|Databases]] are also very powerful additions to any course.
| |
| | |
| If all of that isn't enough for you then you can also [[Non-standard modules|add other modules]] that are not part of the official Moodle release!
| |
| | |
| ==Resources==
| |
| | |
| Moodle supports a range of different [[Resources|resource types]] that allow you to insert almost any kind of web content into your courses.
| |
| | |
| A [[Text page]] is a simple page written using plain text. Text pages aren't pretty, but they're a good place to put some information or instructions. If you are after more options for your new page then you should be thinking about adding a [[Web page]] and making use of Moodle's WYSIWYG editor.
| |
| | |
| Of course the resource may already exist in electronic form so you may want to [[File or website link|link to an uploaded file or external website]] or simply display the complete contents of a [[Directory|directory]] in your course files and let your users pick the file themselves. If you have an [[IMS content package]] then this can be easily added to your course.
| |
| | |
| Use a [[Label|labels]] to embed instructions or information in the course section.
