The usual way to edit or create text that is part of the visual content of a course is with the HTML editor tool.

The way to get to the content text, depends the role the user in a context. A student will see the tool when they reply to a forum post but will not have the ability of changing a topic heading in the course. A teacher will not have the ability to edit a topic heading in a course unless the "Turn editing on" button has been clicked.

Teachers and administrators should be aware that the Moodle code contains "strings" of text that can be edited though customizing the language on a site wide basis.
