Overview of my courses: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 01:46, 9 August 2006

Moodle 1.6 and onwards includes My Moodle, which shows a customisable "dashboard" of information relevant to each user.

In the center are all the courses one has access to, including information about unread posts, new assignments, upcoming quizzes and so on in each.

The blocks on both sides can be customised in two ways:

1) The admin can specify "Sticky blocks" from the Admin page that appear on every user's My Moodle page.

2) The user can (if the admin allows it) add their own blocks.

Set mymoodleredirect to 'Yes' in the miscellaneous section of Administration >> Configuration >> Variables
Configure My Moodle sticky blocks in Administration >> Sticky blocks

-"The MyMoodle page allows for a customisable homepage for students to be set up. The "Customizable" element comes from students being allowed to setup the page with Blocks that they would like to use. Blocks can be locked in as immovable and also can be hidden from students if needed to prevent them from being used."
