Course categories organize courses for all Moodle site participants. The default course category on a new Moodle site is "Miscellaneous" (although this can be renamed) A Creador de curso, Administrador or Mánager can put all courses in the Miscellaneous category. However, teachers and students will find it easier to find their classes if they are organized in descriptive categories.
The list of courses within a category by default shows the teachers and the summary of each course. If the number of courses within a category exceeds 9 (10 or more), then a short list without teachers and summary is shown.
Añadiendo una categoría
La mayoría de las personas organizan sus cursos por departamentos y colegios, o por temas. Asegúrese de probar los esquemas organizacionales con unos pocos usuarios, antes de registrar una gran cantidad de cursos, para ahorrar tiempo moviéndolos luego
Añadir categorías es muy fácil:
- Ir a "Administración" > "Administración del sito" > "Cursos" > "añadir una categoría"
- Complete los detalles requeridos y de clic en "Crear categoría"
- Otra forma de lograrlo es yendo a "Administración" > "administración de sitio" > "Administrar cursos y categorías" y de clic en el link "Crear una nueva categoría".
Si la categoría es visible, la descripción de la categoría del curso se mostrará a los usuarios cuando ellos ingresen a esta, bajo la lista de cursos
