    • Starred - this displays any activity or resource you (the teacher) star as a favourite or frequently used activity.
    • All - this displays all Activities and Resources together
    • Activities - this displays only Activities
    • Resources - this displays only Resources
    • Recommended - this displays items the administrator has chosen in Site administration > Courses >Activity chooser >Recommended activities"


Note: If the administrator has enabled integration with MoodleNet then the option to browse content from MoodleNet is visible at the foot of the activity chooser.

  • From Site administration > Courses >Activity chooser >Activity chooser settings, the administrator can define the default tabs for the activity chooser in courses.
  • From Site administration > Courses > Activity chooser >Recommended activities, the administrator can select items which will then appear in a Recommended tab in the activity chooser.
